    Kidney stones are usually asymptomatic until they obstruct the flow of urine. Symptoms can include acute flank pain (renal colic), nausea and vomiting, restlessness, dull pain, hematuria, and possibly fever if infection is present. Acute renal colic is described as one of the worst types of pain that a patient can suffer. Note that the pain is generally due to the stone's presence in the ureter, and not—as is commonly believed—the urethra and lower genitals.

    Some patients have no symptoms until their urine turns bloody—this may be the first symptom of a kidney stone. The amount of blood may not be sufficient to be seen, and thus the first warning can be microscopic hematuria, when red blood cells are found in the microscopic study of a urine sample, during a routine medical test.

    You will be in such pain that you wont post a question on Yahoo answers, you will be driving immediately to the emergency room to make sure it is just a kidney stone and not appendicitis or worse.
