Can i treat my kidney stones without all the medications?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: There are many types of kidneys stones and causes. Some require specific medications and monitoring to prevent future stones. But in general, drinking plenty of water (2 liters per day) and avoiding excess salt and protein can help prevent stones in people who have had them in the past. Make sure to see your doctor.
