Pelviureteric Junction Calculus - #6799
A recent ultrasound showed I have a pelviureteric junction calculus measuring around 8mm. I didn’t even know what it was until now, but the doctor said it’s a kidney stone stuck where the pelvis of the kidney meets the ureter. I’ve had on-and-off pain in my lower back and side for a couple of months, but I thought it was just muscle strain. Turns out, it was this pelviureteric junction calculus causing the discomfort. The pain gets sharp when I drink less water or eat salty foods. The doctor suggested shock wave therapy or surgery if the pelviureteric junction calculus doesn’t move, but I’m hoping Ayurveda might have a solution to dissolve or flush it out naturally. I’ve read that herbs like Gokshura and Pashanbheda can help break down stones, but I don’t know how effective they are for a pelviureteric junction calculus of this size. Does anyone have experience with treating a pelviureteric junction calculus through Ayurvedic methods? Are there specific remedies, teas, or medicines that helped? I’m willing to try dietary changes too, but I’m unsure where to start. Would love to hear any real-life success stories or tips!
