Preventing Future Kidney Stones – What Worked for You? Hi all, I had my first kidney stone last year, and it was such a painful experience that I’m determined to avoid going through that again. I’ve read that certain dietary changes can help prevent kidney stones, so I’ve been trying to cut down on salt and increase my water intake. I’m also considering adding more citrus fruits to my diet, as I’ve heard they can help prevent stones from forming. For those of you who have had kidney stones in the past, what lifestyle or dietary changes have you made to prevent them from coming back? Are there specific foods or drinks that you avoid or recommend? I’d love to hear what’s worked for others in keeping kidney stones at bay. Thanks so much for sharing your experiences!

Managing Pain from Kidney Stones Hello community, I’ve had kidney stones a few times over the past few years, and I can honestly say it’s some of the worst pain I’ve ever experienced. I’m currently dealing with another one, and the pain is really intense. My doctor prescribed **hydrocodone** to help manage it, but I’m trying not to rely too heavily on painkillers. Does anyone have tips for managing the pain at home? I’ve tried heating pads and drinking lots of fluids, but I’m open to any other suggestions that might help get through this. Thanks!
