For the treatment of kidney stones, combine with the size of kidney stones, choose the appropriate treatment program. If the stone is small, under 5mm, it can be treated conservatively with medication, the more commonly used medications include stone pellets, potassium citrate, allopurinol and other medications, which costs about 1000 dollars. If the stone increases further, between 5-20mm, you can consider applying extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy treatment, the cost is about 2,000 dollars. If the stone is bigger, more than 20mm, or the size is not so big, but the shape is not very regular, and the effect of the above two methods is not good, you can consider applying percutaneous nephrolithotomy or open surgery. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy is a minimally invasive treatment, the operation is difficult and the cost is higher, about 30000 dollars. Open surgery is more invasive, however, the cost is relatively less, about 10,000 dollars.
