Do kidney stones always cause pain?

They actually don't always hurt, yaar. My dad has had a small stone for years and he never felt any pain from it. But if it starts moving, then the pain is no joke, so it's better to keep an eye on it.

Actually, no. Kidney stones only cause pain when they start moving or block the urine flow in the ureter. If they are just sitting quietly inside the kidney, you might not feel them at all.

Not always. Some stones can remain painless for a long time. But since sudden, severe pain can shoot up your blood pressure, it's wise to monitor them through regular medical checkups with your doctor.

No, silent stones are quite common and don't cause any discomfort. However, even if there is no pain, it is important to have regular checkups and ultrasounds to ensure they aren't silently growing or causing blockages.

No bro, my brother had a stone and didn't feel a thing until it moved down the tube. Once it started moving, he was crying in pain. So don't assume no pain means you are completely safe.
