Dealing with a kidney stone of 10mm in size can be pretty discomforting, but there are natural ways in Ayurveda that may help manage the condition, though a stone of this size often requires medical intervention if symptoms worsen. Ayurvedic approach focuses on balancing doshas, enhancing agni (digestive fire), and working on the affected dhatus (tissues).
Firstly, it’s essential to maintain proper hydration to facilitate the passage of the stone. Drink ample amounts of water throughout the day—at least 2 to 3 liters, unless otherwise advised by a healthcare provider. Hydration can help flush out small stones naturally.
In Ayurveda, Pashanabheda (Bergenia ligulata) is commonly used to manage kidney stones. You may consider taking its decoction; crush the roots and boil in water until reduced by half, and consume it once or twice daily.
Another useful remedy is Gokshura (Tribulus terrestris). This herb is known for supporting urinary tract health and could be taken as a powder mixed with water twice a day.
Your diet should be sattvic, focusing on light, easily digestible foods that don’t aggravate Vata or Kapha doshas. Avoid spicy, oily, and heavy foods. Include more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Lemon water* with honey in the morning can help break down mineral aggregates.
Pranayama and yoga can help manage pain. Try Sheetali and Bhramari pranayama, which are calming. Gentle asanas like Trikonasana and Bhujangasana are beneficial.
Always monitor pain levels; if severe pain comes back or there’s blood in urine, it’s key to see a doctor quickly to rule out complications. Stones of this size might need more than dietary or herbal management alone.
These suggestions can be complementary, but if the stone is causing intense pain or affecting daily life, medical treatments should be considered promptly. Working with a healthcare professional, Ayurvedic or allopathic, is vital when managing kidney stones especially if symptoms persist or worsen.
NAMASTE SAI,
I understand you’re dealing with a painful 10mm kidney stone, which is affecting you ability to study and prepare for defence exams.keep in mind a 10mm stone is quite large, and full reliance on home remedies may not be enough.
-Stones >7mm often do not pass on their own. - A 10mm stone usually needs medical or surgical intervention , such as ureteroscopy, laser lithotripsy or PCNL(percutaneous nephrolithotomy) -ignoring it can damage the kidney or cause severe infection
INTERNALLY START WITH
1) VARUNADI KASHAYA= 20 ml with warm water before meals = break down kidney stone
2) PUNARNAVA MANDOOR- 2 tabs after meals with warm water = reduces swelling, and support kidney function
3) GOKSHURADI GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily before meals with warm water = diuretic and stone preventive
4) PASHANBHEDA CHURNA= 3gm with water in morning and night =stone breaker her
5) HIMALAYA CYSTONE TABLET= 2 tabs twice daily =stone breaking
HYDRATION IS CRUCIAL -drink 3-4 L of water/ day - add fresh lemon juice - citric acid may help dissolve calcium stones - barley water = natural diuretic, helps flush out stones
DIET GUIDLINESS
AVOID -High oxalate foods= spinach, chocolate, nuts, tea -too much animal protein - excess salt and processed foods
PREFER -coconut water=natural diuretic -fresh fruits- esp watermelon, oranges - low oxalate vegetables
LIFESTYLE AND YOGA yoga poses that may help with kidney fuction -bhujangasana - pavanmuktasana - uttanpadasana
PAIN MANAGEMENT -Hot water bag on the back or lower abdomen -herbal teas with coriander seed, fennel, and cumin
You need to be pain free and healthy to perform your best. If stone dosent move naturally , surgical removal ( like laser lithotripsy) is safe, minimally invasive and will help you return to full health quickly
