   Drinking lots of water, avoiding caffeine can help.

   Also, there have been studies showing that lemon therapy has proven to be quite successful at dissolving kidney stones. You should drink about 32 ounces of low sugar lemonade or you could use about 4 ounces of pure lemon juice added to 2 1/2 liters of beverage( I would use water).

   Good luck to you.

   Hard alcohol actually prevents them… I am not sure about dissolving them but you might as well try it…

   Sorry, but once you’ve got them the only way to get rid of them is by sonic pulverization. You can try drinking large amounts of water, but all that’s gonna do is make it hurt when those stones come down the ureter and urinary tract.

   not for dissolving. but i found that becoming dehydrated makes them move faster. it is painful but it is better then having them stuck. just drink a lot of alcohol for a day, then rehydrate the next 2 days, repeat if needed. usually 2 or 3 times.

   have lazer surgery. It works. Also doctor told my mother. Stay away from water, cheese, etc. After she stopped eating certain foods she stopped producing them. I’ll say a prayer for you. Good luck.

   It depends on what the kidney sstone is composed of, since there are different types, each affected by nutritional intake (what you eat and drink). I know that drinking a LOT of water can help stones pass more comfortably. Your doctor should have you straining your urine so the stone can be caught and analyzed. The other popular remedy to minimize their development is drinking cranberry juice.
