I have a diagnosed 3mm kidney stone. how long will it take to pass? was in er yesterday for it. any tips? been drinking lots of water.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Kidney stone: This stone should pass. Continue strong fluid intake, and strain all urine with a handkerchief to collect the tiny stone and have it analyzed at the laboratory. If you continue to have painful spasms and don't pass the stone, contact a urologist to follow-up and advice.
