Lemon Juice also helps in breaking the kidney stones and flushing them out. A lot of people advise `Drinking Beer' which has the same effect on the body as Diuretics meaning that it produces more urine and increases the pressure of the urine which helps in flushing out the kidney stones. However the alcohol content in the beer is not helping your health in any manner. So stick to water and stay healthy.

Surgical Procedures and Costs

Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) - ESWL or lithotripsy procedure is the best treatment for kidney stone when the size of the stone is not too large and the stone is also not too old. In this procedure the stones are broken into small particles using shock waves and then the kidney stones pass through urine. The cost of this procedure is USD 1200 for each sitting and may be a costly option as 2-3 sittings might be required.

Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) - This is the minimally invasive procedure to remove the kidney stones. This is also the most widely used and one of the best methods for surgical removal of kidney stones. In this case if the kidney stone is big in size then the doctor will break the stone and take out most of the pieces during the surgery and very small particles pass through urine as in case of ESWL. This surgery is done by Urologists at our hospitals. The cost of PCNL Surgery ranges between USD 2000-3000.

Ureteroscopic Stone Removal -This procedure is used to remove kidney stones stuck in ureter. This does not need any incision, rather a urteroscope is inserted through the opening of the penis or vagina to visualize the location of the kidney stone and take it out. A stent is left for a week for flow of urine and stone particles. The cost of this procedure is USD 1500-2500.

The hospital stay for these surgeries is only 1-2 days and the patient can fly back home within a week.
