I have kidney stone. What should I do other than operation?
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.

Now after 6 months, I have dark colored urine and my report shows 15 to 20 red blood cells per high power field, but I have no pain and no fever. The urine culture report is negative. What might be the problem?
