“How long is recovery after laser kidney stone removal?”

Recovery time depends on your age and other medical problems that you have.  It also depends on whether or not a stent is placed in your tube that connects the kidney to the bladder after the procedure is done.  For the most part, it should only take a few days to recover from this procedure.  The better the shape you are in prior to the procedure, the shorter the recovery period will be. 

Usually patients get better after a week after the procedure, but the tots recovery will be 6 weeks
