Hi,
Calculi basically refer to stones. It means you have stones blocking your urine. It predisposes you to infections. Depending on the sizes of the calculi, you can wash the stones out just by drinking loads of water. If the stones are larger, you should visit a urologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
