An ounce of preventi: Elimination of the stone is important, either by passing the stone, (drink ALOT of water) or by having a doctor basket the stone or a procedure called lithotripsy which shatters the stone. Best for the future is prevention. Try to retrieve the stone, (filter all your urine ) and have it analyzed. Soften your water if it "hard", but lots of fluids is the main prevention
