I am searching for a good remedy for the problem of my friend who has a Kidney Stone. Previously he already undergo a dialysis. For some reason they went for a second opinion. And mention the kidney is just weak. Not still working normally.
My question is how can we eliminate the stone inside his kidney?
Some people say Sambong will work, some says fresh squeezed lemon juice and some says gondol. What should I choose from that option.

From what you've mentioned here, he is already a chronic case. So it is not wise to try other alternatives. Laser method would have to be employed for breaking those stones - if possible. Otherwise, he would have to continue taking some medicines and follow a specified diet regimen till another kidney matching his tissue sample is found. But there is hope. Researchers are trying to develop new organs from stem cells. He might just get lucky. So let him try those medicines and if necessary go on dialysis again till new technology becomes available.

Don't be worried so much, kidney stone is not a very serious problem. Drink more water as usual. And remember do not skip the breakfast. Since my colleague had a kidney stone when she had the body check. The doctor told her to sit to the back seats since the movement may make her kidney stone come out. It is very interesting that my colleague doesn't have kidney stone any more. And she doesn't take any medicine.
I love China

Since your friend had already undergone dialysis, I think it is a serious problem. I don't know about herbal remedies, maybe it would help depending on the patient, the way he thought about it. What I mean is you have to believe, maybe it do helps and of course don't forget to pray.
Some doctors have options like smashing the stone through laser but I heard too that sometimes it do come back. My friend who had a small kidney stone before used to drink young coconut juice everyday. He didn't mention to me again about his stone maybe it was gone. I hope your friend can think of ways to solve his problem.

hi,
its really hard to have a kidney stone in our body because we will feel pain from it especially when we are urinating,to dissolve that stone there are now medicines to do that,or we can also use some herbal plants to dissolve it,and that is what we were doing with my sister in law when we feel our low back part aching.

That all depends on the size of the stone. If it is very small, then there is a chance your friend could pass it. If it is larger, the doctors can, what they call, blast them. That way they become small passable particles. Home remedies will not work with kidney stones. If it is large, an operation wold be needed. See a good doctor.

I really don't think any remedy will work. If the stone is large enough to impare kidney function then a doctor needs to care for him. He might need to go through that laser blasting so the stones will crumble and be passed. I wish your friend well.

There are many factors that cause a Kidney Stone and I know that knowing you had your second opinion the doctors have already told you about this.. My aunt is also suffering from kidney stones which eventually leads to kidney failure.. If your friend undergo Kidney Dialysis I guess its not just Kidney Stones..
Prevention is always the goal of kidney problems, once the kidney fails, our goal now is to prevent further deterioration of renal function. One thing to consider is DIET, you should consult to a dietician regarding the foods that is appropriate for a certain disease and which food to avoid for those who have kidney stones..
Since our Kidneys cannot easily remove excess water, salt or potassium, this may need to consume in limited quantities. Eat food high in potassium such as banana,apricot and some salt substitute..
The kidney stones must be eliminated through urine, if not your friend will really has to undergo dialysis..

Kidney stones are so very painful, especially in men. If it is small enough, you can hope it eventually passes. Drinking more liquids may help with that but he needs to be careful he doesn't over-hydrate. Cranberry juice is said to be helpful for kidney/urinary difficulties.
If it is a larger 'stone', surgery of course, is an option. Some urologists use a laser technique that will break up the stone so it can be passed but that can be iffy. Sometimes the invasive surgery is the only way to get a stone gone.
