Kidney stone
Hi,
I have 2 kidney stones of 3mm and 4mm in the kidney.
I am regularly having 3-4 litres of water everyday.
As per the urologist suggestion, I am properly maintaining the water intake by regularly checking the urine color(no yellowish color).
If I regularly consume the water intake of 3-4ltrs, is there any chances that the size of kidney stones increases and develops new kidney stones??
