How can I treat kidney stones at home?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
One can increase water intake along with lemon juice. You are recommended to drink 12 glasses of water in a day to speed up the stone passing process. However, if your stone size is more than 7mm then you may need surgical intervention.
Dr. Vasanthasree Suggests...
Take a Beta-2- Glycoprotein -1 IgM Test or Take a MTHFR - (METHYL TETRA HYDRO FOLATE REDUCTASE) GENE MUTATION (HOMOCYSTEINEMIA) Test

I have two kidney stones. My ultrasound scan shows a 10.3 mm stone in the right kidney and a 6.3 mm stone in the left kidney. The scan also notes mildly increased renal parenchymal echogenicity, suggesting medical renal disease, with bilateral non obstructing calculi. My urine and blood tests show a creatinine level of 1.65 mg/dL, urea of 31.9 mg/dL, blood urea nitrogen of 14.9 mg/dL, and protein 1. I would like to understand what this means for my kidney health and what steps I should take next.
