Abstract: Renal stone disease is a prevalent health concern today. Patients suffering from renal calculi often hesitate to undergo surgery unless absolutely necessary, seeking non-invasive medical management through Allopathic, Homeopathic, or Ayurvedic systems. Lithotripsy is a common surgical intervention for recurrent kidney stones. In Ayurveda, renal stones are described as Mutrashmari, categorized under Ashtamahagada, and are considered a Kaphapradhan Tridoshaja Vyadhi. This case study presents a 42-year-old female patient experiencing left-sided abdominal pain radiating to her back, along with burning and obstructed micturition. Advised to undergo lithotripsy at a private hospital, she opted against the invasive procedure and sought Ayurvedic treatment instead. The successful management and expulsion of her renal stone through Ayurvedic medicines underline their efficacy as a non-invasive alternative for treating renal calculi.
