Maintain high water intake and follow a Pitta–Kapha reducing diet (avoid spinach, excess dairy, fried food, and high salt). Regular follow-up is important because stone of 11 mm usually does not pass naturally. -----Dx: Ashmari (Right renal calculus – 11 mm) —Rx: 1) Aimil Neeri Syrup – 10 ml bd after food with water 2) Himalaya Cystone – 2 tabs bd after food 3) Gokshura (Himalaya) – 1 tab bd after food 3) Vaidyanath Pathrina Tablet – 2 tabs bd after food 4) Patharchatta – fresh leaf juice 10 ml OD 5) tab trifla 1 tab at night —Advice: Drink 2.5–3 L water/day Avoid high salt, spinach, curd at night, processed foods –Repeat USG in 4 weeks

Hello, For a stone of 11 mm, it is important to note that this size is generally considered at the upper limit for passing naturally through the ureter. Clinical monitoring is essential to avoid complications like hydronephrosis (kidney swelling) or infection. ​ ​In Ayurveda, kidney stones are referred to as Ashmari. The treatment goal is Bhedana (breaking the stone) and Mutrala (diuretic action) to flush the fragments out through the urinary tract. ​Use of Ranapala (Bryophyllum pinnatum) ​Ranapala (Patharchatta) is traditionally used for its lithotriptic (stone-breaking) properties. ​Form: Fresh leaves. ​Dosage: Take 2 medium-sized leaves. ​Method: Wash the leaves thoroughly. You can chew them directly on an empty stomach in the morning or crush them to extract the juice (about 10–15 ml). ​Duration: Typically taken for 15–30 days, followed by a repeat ultrasound to check for size reduction. ​Caution: Excessive consumption can lead to an increase in calcium oxalate levels in some individuals; do not exceed 2 leaves per day. ​ Ayurveda medicines for your condition : ​For a stone of this size, a combination of classical formulations is often used to assist the breaking process. 1. ​Punarnavadi Kwath: 15 ml diluted with 45 ml of lukewarm water, taken twice daily before food. It acts as a potent diuretic to help push the stone. 2. ​Candraprabha Vati: 2 tablets twice daily after food. This helps reduce inflammation in the urinary tract and manage pain. 3. ​Hajrul Yahood Bhasam: (If available in their complex formulations) 250 mg twice daily with honey or water. This is a specific “stone-dissolving” medicine. ​Important Advice ​Drink at least 3–4 liters of water daily to maintain high urine output. ​ Avoid spinach, tomatoes (with seeds), beetroot, and excessive dairy, as these can contribute to stone growth.

11 mm kidney stone is relatively large, so chances of passing it naturally are low, but supportive treatment can still be tried with monitoring. Ranapala (Patharchatta) can help in small stones and urinary support, but do not depend only on it for complete removal. How to take: Fresh leaves are preferred. Take 1–2 fresh leaves, wash properly, crush and extract juice. Ranapala (leaf juice) – 10–15 ml once daily on empty stomach You can continue for 3–4 weeks and monitor symptoms. Keep hydration high (2.5–3 liters water daily unless restricted). Avoid excess salt, spinach, tomato seeds, and oxalate-rich foods. At home: Coconut water can be taken occasionally. Barley water is also helpful. Gokshuradi guggulu – 1 tablet twice daily Varunadi kwath – 15 ml twice daily These support urinary flow and stone management. Important: Repeat scan after few weeks. If pain starts, stone moves, or size doesn’t reduce, consult urologist as larger stones may need procedure. Regards, Dr Raghuveer (Ayurvedacharya)

hello, why kidney stones form kidney stones are like small crystals of salt that slowly combine and grow inside your kidney because -not enough water-> urine becomes thick -too much salt in diet -low citrate- a natural stone preventing chemical -certain foods= spinach, beetroot, nuts, tea etc -high uric acid or calcium oxalate in urine -genetic tendencyy just like sugar crystallises at the bottom of a glass when there is less water, kidney salts crystallise when there is less urine. in ayurveda, kidney stones are called “mutrashmari” which means hard formations in the urinary tract reasons according to ayurveda 1) poor digestion -creates undigested particles-> increase in toxins (ama) 2) imbalance of vata and pitta -vata=> causes dryness + stone movement pain -pitta=> increase heat-> concentrate urine-> leads to stone formation -kapha=>provides the sticky base on which the stone forms 3) dehydration= insufficient urine makes crystals combine 4) dietary causes= heavy, sour, salty foods treatment goals -prevent new stones from forming -remove small crystals / early stone formation -keep kidneys functioning well -reduce heat from urinary system -improve digestion and metabolism -reduce stone forming foods internal plan 1) gokshuradi guggulu = 1 tab twice daily after meals for 3 months = clears urinary tract, improves kidney strength, anti-inflammatory 2) chandraprabha vati= 1 tab twice daily after meals for 2 months = balances metabolism, prevents crystal formation, works as a urinary antiseptic 3) varunadi kashaya= 20 ml+ equal water twice daily before meals for 3 months = stone breaking properties, prevents recurrence, clears toxins 4) punarnava capsules= 1 cap twice daily after meals for 2 months =reduces swelling, improves kidney filtration, helps flush toxins 5) pashanbheda capsules= 500mg twice daily after meals for 2 months = literally meals stone breaker, dissolves early stage crystals diet high citrate foods -lemon -mosambi (safe for you)- mosambi juice is safe for most people, it provides citrate which helps prevent kidney stone formation, it does not cause kidney damage, 1 glass / day is safe -orange -pineapple -amla safe vegetables -lauki -cucumber -carrot -pumpkin -ash gourd - beans hydrating drinks -coconut water -buttermilk -lemo water -cumin coriander water safe proteins -dal -chickpeas in small amount -panner (limited) avoid these increase calcium,oxalate stones high oxalate foods -spinach -beetroot -tomato seeds -nuts almonds, cashews, peanuts -soy products -chocolate -excess tea/coffee high-salt foods -pickles -chips -bakery products -ready made snacks high animal protein foods -red meat -organ meat -highprotein gym powders home remedies -lemon + warm water= drink 1-2 lemons daily =increases urine citrate-> prevents stone formation -coriander + cumin water= reduces heat, helps kidney filtration drink warm -barley water= excellent diuretic, helps prevent stone recurrence -kulthi dal soup= horse gram classical remedy for stones, helps breaks down crystals use 2-3 times per week not daily, avoid if too thin yoga for kidney health -pawanmuktasana= helps abdominal organs -bhujangasana= increases kidneys blood flow -ardha matsyendrasana= improves urinary system -vajrasana= improves digestion -dhanurasana= relieves urinary congestion do not perform during active stone pain pranayam -anulom vilom= balances kidneys -sheetali/sheetkari= reduces urinaryheat -bhastrika= only if no abdominal pain do for 10-15min daily your kidneys are healthy right now -yes you can take ranapal leaves= 2 leaves curshed or have jyuce morning empty stomach -ayurveda can help keep your kidneys strong and prevent new stones -follow diet + hydration + medications + lifestyle consistently do follow hope this might be helpful thank you
