13mm Stone In Kidney - #8065

I was recently diagnosed with a 13mm stone in my kidney, and while my doctor has recommended certain treatments, I’m also exploring natural and Ayurvedic remedies to manage the condition and potentially avoid surgical intervention. I’d like to understand more about how Ayurveda addresses kidney stones of this size and whether natural methods can be effective in breaking them down or managing the symptoms. From what I’ve read, a 13mm stone in the kidney is considered large and may cause significant discomfort, including sharp pain, blood in the urine, and difficulty urinating. Can Ayurveda help dissolve stones of this size, or does it primarily focus on preventing further growth and reducing symptoms? Are there specific herbs or formulations, like Gokshura, Punarnava, or Varuna, that are effective in managing kidney stones and supporting urinary health? I’m also curious about how Ayurvedic treatments are administered for a large kidney stone. Should remedies like Ashmarihar Kadha or Chandraprabha Vati be taken daily, and how long does it typically take to see results? Are these remedies more effective when combined with specific dietary changes, such as avoiding oxalate-rich foods and increasing water intake? Another question I have is about pain management during this process. Does Ayurveda recommend any therapies or external treatments, such as abdominal massages or herbal poultices, to alleviate discomfort while the stone is being dissolved? Are there any Panchakarma treatments specifically designed for urinary tract and kidney health? Lastly, I’d like to hear from anyone who has successfully managed a 13mm stone in kidney using Ayurvedic or natural remedies. Were the treatments effective, and how long did it take to achieve results? Were there any challenges in maintaining a consistent routine or following the dietary recommendations? Any detailed advice on managing kidney stones naturally and understanding Ayurvedic approaches to this condition would be greatly appreciated.
