The best mode of treatment for big sized kidney stones (7mm and more) is lithotripsy. Other treatments may include drinking 12 glasses of water so that small sized kidney stones can pass via urine.

Dr. Hema Suggests...

Take a Covid-RTPCR with FEVER PANEL - ADVANCE Test or Take a Amino Acids Qualitative, Plasma Test
