My Mother has been diagnosed with a large kidney stone which has resulting in years of painful urine infections. She has private health insurance and, living near Bath, her only treatment service which has been offered to her is a mobile unit which visits the RUH once a month with a waiting list. Are there Kidney stone clinics nationally? I am having difficulty in finding information.
Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor. As a Urologist, a large kidney stone must be removed. The stone is the focus of infections. Once cleared, the pain also will be relieved. Leaving it, will cause pain, recurrent infections and increase in size of stone.There are stone clinics nationally. Stones can be treated in many ways. You should send details of your reports, scans, age,and medication. You can send them as a direct question, to me, for my expert opinion. Chat Doctor.  Manga.
