Gentle Relief from Kidney Stones

At Suwasevana, our Lithotripsy Unit offers a safe, non-invasive way to treat kidney and ureter stones. Using advanced shock or laser waves, stones are broken down gently without the need for surgery. The procedure usually takes less than an hour, with anesthesia provided to ensure comfort throughout. Afterward, stone fragments are passed naturally through urine, making recovery simple and quick. Most patients are able to walk soon after treatment and return to normal routines within a day or two. It’s effective care that restores comfort with minimal disruption to life.
