A member asked:
Are 3 mm calcifications in lower poles of kidney, bad?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Kidney Stones: 3 mm is small enough for you to pass on your own, but they will cause you pain if and when you pass them. Have your doctor conduct a 24 hour urine collection for "stone risk profile" to see why you have kidney stones.
