Most people can get rid of their kidney stones naturally even though the pain they experience could lead them to believe surgery is the only way. If you are experiencing pain from kidney stones consider the natural alternative before going under the "knife."

Eighty-five percent of all kidney stones are made of calcium oxalate and the stones are usually no more than 7 mm in size. The pain comes from the kidney stones having razor-sharp jagged edges which causes extreme pain when trying to pass the stones through the kidneys. One way to avoid the pain is to dissolve them to small sand like particles.
