A member asked:
32 weeks pregnant and i have a calcium build up in the upper right cortex what does that mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Needs clarification: Are you referring to the cortex of the kidney? If so a calcium build up there sounds like what most doctors would call a kidney stone. Consider rephrasing and resubmitting the question.
