How do you know if a kidney stone has dissolved?
I was told I had a kidney stone on my right hand side and was getting pains. Nothing extremely severe. I don’t seem to be getting that much pain anymore on my right hand side. I still get cramping and pelvic pain but it is a little more on my left side. Could the stone have dissolved and I don’t know it?

Kidney stones unfortunately do not dissolve on their own. The most common way is to pass them through your urinary tract. If your bladder has a burning sensation, that means your stone is in your bladder. If you had shockwave lithotripsy (procedure to break stones), then you will eventually urinate stone fragments, which resemble sand. Were you diagnosed with a stone by a doctor? If not, you may have a UTI, because a kidney stone is commonly extremely painful. Blood in the urine is common as well. Typically stones may take anywhere from 3 days to 4 weeks to completely pass. I actually have one right now (my 7th in 2 years), so I know what your going through. We’re in the same boat. I have what they call a Urethropelvic Junction Obstruction, which is also called Hydronephrosis. It causes my kidney to get backed up constantly, causing daily pain. I fear that this stone is stuck at my urethra junction, where my partial blockage is. If that’s the case, I’ll be enjoying the weekend from a hospital bed, but good luck to you. If you need any infoo from someone who has kidney probs frequently, dont hesitate to ask. my email is spaethe_bt@yahoo if you have any questions. also check webmd.com and type ‘kidney stone’ in the search box. Hope this helps and good luck to you!!
I’ve had a kidney stone before, and I had to pee it out. You need to pee the stone out, it won’t dissolve on its own.
