Depends on the size. Sometimes they give you a pill or drink I think to break it down. In this case, I think they would have to surgically remove it. You know, they ain't really sure what causes them? It could be too much calcium, not enough (your body begins to break down your bones, osteoperosis style), or acid based ones from different types of food and sodas and such (usually excessive amounts), as well as other things.

Sorry but no .

You have confused kidney stones with gallstones.


Finnaly kidney stones . It is unknow what causes it but those things help to cause it .


1)Lack of movement.
2) Lack of exersize
3) Certain drinks when consumed in big quantities
Coca Cola , Pepsi Cola , all kinds of Cola (cola because of phosporic acid)
plus Cacao (has another substance i do not remember what).
4) Drinking less than 1 Lt of water per day.
5) Eating Junk food like fries ,burgers
6) Consuming too much vitamin C in pills.


That sounds like the typical Game developer life doesnt it ?

You know this makes perfect sense. I mean yea, now I want to know how come more devs don't get'em, or maybe they do but they just don't talk about them.

Only 5 % of people get those kind of stones.

So even if your lifestyle is unhealth this only increases your chances a few times .

It does not mean that you have to get them .


As an analogy if you know nothing about RPG that does not mean that you will buy FOPOS . It just increases you chances.
