KIDNEY COLIC – TREATMENT
Treatment is to be repeated, in alternation, for half an hour each time. As soon as the stone begins to move toward the bladder the pain will move from the back to the front and then slowly diminish. The moment the stone enters the bladder the patient will be more or less free from pain. It may take several hours to accomplish this, but once achieved, the patient can then lie quietly and rest without any further danger. If he is thirsty, give him diluted Molkosan (concentrated whey) to sip as this reduces the internal heat and replaces the liquids lost by perspiration in the bath. It will also provide the liquid essential to eliminate any further toxins that are still in the system. Additionally, give the patient plenty of knotgrass (Polygonum aviculare) tea because this too helps to dissolve the stones.
However, this is not yet the end of treatment. A thorough follow-up cure, including sitz baths and massage is necessary, as the stone must not be allowed to remain in the bladder where it could give rise to irritation and bleeding.
