Some kidney stones just pass through the body without any help from a doctor, He should go to the doctor when:
Blood in urine
Vomiting
Urine that smells bad or looks cloudy
a burning feeling when he urinates
These are signs that he needs to see a doctor for:

Does he drink alot of Gatorade, or any kind of sports drink? Does he take Rolaids, or anything for stomach problems? It's not good for people to drink alot of sports drinks, and don't do alot of physical activity. Their bodies do not use the drink properly and the calcium in them builds up and causes kidney stones. People think that it is just as good, if not better to drink sports drinks instead of water. But those drinks should only be used by people doing any very physical activity. Not by someone just "sweating". You body needs to be in a high drive to use the nutrients properly. And as I said before, if you take alot of anti-acid, that can lead to alot of calcium build up as well.

Kidney stones are a result of a calcium deficiency. Double his calcium intake with supplements.
