I am 55 years old and in pretty good health. For the first time in my life I am encountering (what I believe are) kidney stones. I have not passed one yet, but I believe I feel one is..."descending". I have soreness in that region.
I don't have the money to go to a doctor, right now. What can I do for the pain? And is there any sort of lubricant or something I can take to promote the passage of the stone? I am straining my urine to collect the stone(s) when it passes. I guess there are several varieties of kidney stone from different causes.
