Will 6 Mm Calculus In Lower Poly Calyx Of Right Kidney Pass Out Naturally Through Urine?
The CT Scan shows that I have a 6mm Calculus in mower poly calyx of my Right Kidney. The physician says that it would pass out naturally through urine, if I take plenty of water (of about 4 liters a day) henceforth. Just wanted to double check with Nephrologists whether is it correct...

Hi!
I read carefully your query!
You have a problem that is not heavy but it may be serious when the calculus move and fixed i a narrow calyx or pyelon there may cause stasis hidronefrosis and so pain but it may pass without problem but you should drink so much water and so movement sports like basketball are important for calculus movement.
Furthermore I think that every thing will go well because calculus is only 6 mm.
Wishing fast recovery.
