Kidney Stones Symptoms
The location of kidney stone pain can vary from kidney pain in the mid to lower back, to pain in the inguinal area, the side of the lower abdomen, or the central lower abdomen in the bladder area. Symptoms of kidney stones are almost unmistakable, as they involve pain that is so sharp and intense they have been compared to the pain of childbirth. Stones in the kidney, the urinary tract, or the bladder only cause pain when they are moving. When kidney stones are stationary, there is little or no pain at all.
Gallstone Symptoms

The most common symptoms of gallstones are steady, severe pain on the right side of tthe upper abdomen that lasts from 30 minutes to several hours, pain in the back between the shoulder blades, pain under the right shoulder, nausea or vomiting.
Stones According to Traditional Chinese Medicine
Stones appear in both the Kidney and Gallbladder as a result of accumulation. In fact stones can be called accumulations. Accumulations are a consequence of poor flow and dietary excess. Gallstones are made of Cholesterol. Kidney stones can be composed of calcium, oxylates, or uric acid crystals.

To optimize its use for gallstones, combine this herb with Artemesia Capillaris (yin chen), Bupleurum (chai hu), and Gardenia seed (zhi zi).
