2 weeks since passing a 6mm 57-day stone - how long until the pain goes away?

Husband passed a 6mm stone after 57 days of having it.

He's still in pain, it worsens just after driving for 5-10 mins.

Saw the doctor and he's had bloods and urine tests done, all normal. (FYI got the stone tested and it's calcium oxalate ((Whewellite)). We're in Australia if that's relevant.

He hasn't been able to work for over 2 months now.

Is there anything he can do or just have to wait it out? We're assuming his ureters are inflamed and we just have to wait for it to go down..?

What's more unsafe in workplace: small amount of heavy boxes or large amount of light boxes?

Multiple people at work (WA, Australia) suffering with injuries (shoulder/elbow/wrist/hip) from lifting boxes, up to 15kg weight.

I have asked why don't we make the boxes half the weight (are packed with 40 of a certain item so could just put 20 of said item in the box instead)

However I've been told no, because then we will have twice as many boxes and people will hurt their backs from twisting as there will be "too many boxes"

Safety professionals, what do you think?
