kidney stones

 Do kidney stones cause permanent damage?

The majority of small kidney stones pass through without any problems. However, you do need to drink a lot of fluids and you will definitely need something a lot stronger than Tylenol. If you have recurrent stones, you should see a doctor and determine what is causing them. However, large kidney stones can block the ureter and even damage the kidney. Some even get infected and cause severe complications.
