The phase of acute, intermittent pain usually lasts hours to 1 to 2 days. A stone, however, may take days or even weeks to pass. Sometimes weekly x-rays will be necessary to track the progress of the stone down the urinary tract. If the stone has not passed after a month or so, it may need to be surgically removed.
