For a kidney stone of 13 mm, while the potential to dissolve it with herbs like “Patharchatta” (Bryophyllum pinnatum) might exist in traditional practices, the size and location often dictate that medical intervention could be more effective and necessary. Stones over 10 mm generally have a low chance of passing spontaneously and often require surgical intervention such as ESWL (Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy) or a ureteroscopy. Given the acute pain you experience yearly, it suggests that the stone might be causing some intermittent obstruction or irritation.
In Ayurveda, managing kidney stones includes diet and lifestyle adjustments that can complement medical treatments. A sattvic diet that’s low in purines and oxalate-rich foods is recommended. Avoid spinach, beetroots, and tomatoes - these increase risk of stone formation. Increasing your fluid intake to enhance the urine flow and help flush out smaller particles may aid in preventing further stones development.
Herbs like gokshura (Tribulus terrestris) and punarnava (Boerhaavia diffusa) are traditionally known to support urinary health, but these should be used under supervision of a qualified practitioner. Take these in the form of a decoction daily but consult your healthcare provider to ensure there’s no interaction with other treatments you are undergoing.
Despite that, because of the size of your stone, I would advise discussing surgical options with your urologist. Ayurveda can support your recovery and potential prevention of new stones, but in your case, combined approach might be necessary.
Remember to monitor your symptoms closely. Even though chronic pains are rare, persistent or severe pain could indicate complications. Ensure prompt medical evaluation if your condition changes.
