Home treatment for kidney stones


I have had 2 episodes of kidney stones. Is there anything I can do at home to prevent them? The pain was unbearable.

Sure, drink lots of water. Keep well hydrated. If you exercise, make sure you always carry ample water or some type of beverage with you. If you have developed oxalate stones, then you should avoid eating foods like spinach, okra, rhubarb, beets, yams, sweet potatoes, chocolates and soy products. Finally reduce the amount of salt in your diet and eat more plants foods. In most cases, the pain can be severe and cripple you. In such cases, you may need a prescription strength painkiller
