Kidney Stones treatment using Kidney Beans

Kidney beans, also known as dried French beans or Rajmah, are regarded as a very effective home remedy for kidney problems, including kidney stones. The method prescribed to prepare the medicine is to remove the beans from inside the pods, then slice the pods and put about sixty grams in four litre of hot water, boiling them slowly for six hours. This liquid should be strained through fine muslin and then allowed to cool for about eight hours. Thereafter the fluid should be poured through another piece of muslin without stirring.A glass of this decoction should be given to the patient every two hours throughout the day for one day and, thereafter, it may be taken several times a week. This decoction would not work if it was more than twenty-four hours old. The pods could be kept for longer periods but once they were boiled, the therapeutic factor would disappear after one day.

Kidney stones are unbelievable. I remember a few years ago, one of my close friends got them, and I thought he was just being a p*ssy. Then about 6 months later, I got kidney stones. I thought I was gonna die it hurt so bad. I've gone through some pain in my life too...compound arm fractures, dislocated my arm, broken bones, stomach ulcers, and some other things. And NONE of those came anywhere close to how bad kidney stones hurt. I was eating 50mg of Vicodin a day just to get by. Docs said it was all the energy drinks I used to drink all the time at school and work. Honestly, even if you dont have insurance, check n see if theres any free clinics for people with no insurance. They can at least check you out and see if its bad enough that you need to go to the ER or whatever. Good luck bro...

You guys are a bunch of cry babies...lol I have lost count at how many stones I have passed. I have had 2 surgeries on my right kidney. First surgery was to remove stones, hundreds...no exaggeration. Second surgery was to reconstruct the opening of the kidney to the ureter, during which I ended up with a punctured lung and part of a rib removed and one nasty ass scar from 88 staples. I think child birth will be a breeze after all of that. I still have stones that pass quite frequently. I was told before my last surgery to not drink beer anymore because my kidney doesn't drain as it should and beer produces too much urine...so in my case too many fluids is not a good idea because I get a lot of pressure from the kidney area when I drink too much of anything. And, there is a chance that later in life I will have to go through that horrible surgery again. Oh, and the main root of all of my kidney problems is that the right kidney is not completely rotated...meaning it's not in the correct position.

But for those of you that have kidney stones...go to the doctor when the pain is excruciating, because a stone can be too big to pass...and you don't want to "wait that out" and especially if you have never passed a stone before...it may not be a stone. But once you have passed one, you will definitely know the next time what is causing the pain.
