Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

If there are many small stones in kidneys then attempts should be made to make the patient drink lots of fluids and pass urine frequently. Drinking 2 to 3 liters of fluids including water and fresh juices is recommended. This is called flushing treatment and useful in eliminating small stones. For pain during passage of stones she may need to take anti spasmodic medications when required. If the stones are persistently present and are growing larger then repeat extraction by urethroscopic means should be done.
