Does kidney stone pain come on suddenly?

Question

My colleague had a kidney stone attack last week, and she said the pain hit her out of nowhere, suddenly and severely. Does kidney stone pain usually come on so abruptly?

Yes, it strikes very suddenly. Keep yourself hydrated and make sure you have some prescribed pain relief handy just in case.

It is so scary because you are laughing one minute and crying in pain the next. I used to feel so helpless and terrified of leaving the house. It really takes a toll on your mind, so please be gentle with yourself.

Oh, it behaves like an uninvited relative! Absolutely no warning, it just shows up at 2 AM to ruin your night. At my age, you just learn to keep the doctor's number on speed dial.

It does come out of nowhere. Honestly, drinking coconut water and barley water daily really helped reduce those sudden spasms for my husband. Just keep some simple fluids going while you consult your doc.

Our bodies have a way of telling us to slow down when we are ignoring our health. Do not panic when the pain rises suddenly, just take deep breaths and let the medicine do its work. God bless you with a speedy recovery.

Haan yaara, bilkul sudden hota hai. Ekdum se heavy pain shuru ho jata hai back side me. Better watch your water intake daily, cold drinks se thoda door raho na.
