I recently found in my report that a nonobstructive small calyceal calculus of size 2 to 3 mm is seen in the upper pole of the left side kidney. Please advise what should I do? What type of diet should be taken?

A 2 to 3 mm stone can often pass on its own. Drink 2.5 to 3 liters of water daily. Limit salt and oxalate rich foods e.g. spinach, nuts. Avoid sugary drinks. Follow up with your doctor for monitoring.

As per ultrasonography two months ago I had a lower ureteric stone on the right side. Today I did another ultrasonography and the report says no calculus found on either side but mild right renal PCS dilatation and proximal hydroureter?

Question

What does a 19 mm kidney stone look like?
