How to see my kidney's vital signs?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Does Apple cider vinegar get rid of kidney stones?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Left kidney shows mild hydronephrosis due to 17.5 mm calculus in upper ureter. This is my report. Doctor says to do laser operation quickly to pass the stone as the other kidney may get damaged because it swells up due to the stone.
