PAIN PAIN PAIN…if you pass a kidney stone it will be the worst pain you have ever felt in your life….

Pain in or right under your ribs is usually where you feel the pain at with kidney problems. I know I have had 3 kidney infections, and one kidney stone. go to the doctor cause it just could be a kidney infection if left untreated can kill you.

Kidney stones have symptoms of sever colicky pain, restlessness, painful/burning in micturation. usually pain is unbearable and come in episodes.
It is possible ot have stone at age of 17. keep yourself well hydrated. You should drink more of clear water if you think you had stone. Stones less then 5 mm usually pass by themself and may releive symptoms.
You shoud see physician if you are in acute pain or have multiple episodes.
There are several metabolic and hematologic conditions that can precipitate different kind of stones. You should see physician for further workup and education.

I have suffered from Kidney stones since I was about 15, but I wasn't diagnosed until I was 23. MY symptoms were extreme pain in my lower back, nausea, and feeling like I had a UTI (it burned when I urinated, but it was actually small pieces of stone passing through).

It is defintely possible to have kidney stones at your age. my body produces calcium based ones for no apparent reason. if you go to the doctor, ask for an ultrasound of your kidneys. They can determine whether or not you have stones this way.

There is a surgery called a lithotripsy, which I had two years ago. They basically blast all of the stones into dust with sonic waves. if you do have stones, I would HIGHLY reccomend this surgery, as I have not had an attack since the surgery in 2005.

I certainly hope you feel better. I know how much pain you are in. Please do your self a favor and go to the doctor to be sure.

If you had a kidney stone you would not be sitting using a computer, you would be on the floor in agony, sounds more like an infection, see your doctor.

back pain, then it moves to the side then low abdominal ( same side) until the stone(s) reach the bladder.it may take few days. Urinating may be painful. Drink lots, lots of water. Stop drinking soda, diet soda, avoid salty food.
and SEE DOCTOR.
