Utolithiasis is an emergency condition often resulting in severe pain abdomen, back and flanks or groin pain. Here, a case of 21 year old patient is presented with pain in lumbar region, flank and in anterior abdomen, dysuria with nausea and vomiting and has been successfully treated with the individualised homoeopathic treatment Lycopodium clavatum. Keywords: Homoeopathic medicine, urolithiasis, lycopodium Introduction Urolithiasis is global public health problem and its prevalence is higher in young and productive age group [1] , more common in men than women throughout most of adult life but in the sixth decade and incidence falls in men and rises in women. In this recurrent disease, relapse rate in5–10 years is 50% and 75% in 20 years. It is the third most common affliction of the urinary tract [2] . Calcium oxalate is the most common type of kidney stone which is formed at Randall’s plaque on the renal papillary surfaces. The stone formation mechanism is a complex process because itis a result of several physicochemical events, which includes supersaturation, nucleation, growth, aggregation, and retention of urinary stone constituents within tubular cells. These steps are modulated by an imbalance between factors that promote or inhibit urinary crystallization. Retention of particles on renal papillary surfaces is promoted by cellular injury [3] .
