A member asked:
I have kidney stones and noticed a tiny black speck in my urine several times. i drink lots of water should i be alarmed??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Save "speck": The black "specks" could be small blood clots or pieces of stone. It would help if you save one of these to have these tested. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex.
