Today weâre going to talk about what to do at the first sign of a kidney stone.
What are the first signs of a kidney stone?
1. Back pain (usually on one side and could wrap around to the front)
2. Lower abdominal pain or deep dull ache on one side
3. Groin pain
4. Blood in the urine
5. Painful urination
6. Urge to urinate but unable to do so
7. Nausea or vomiting
A kidney stone can develop in the kidney or just outside of the kidney in the duct. There are several types of kidney stones, but the most common is the oxalate stone, which weâre going to focus on.
What you could do if you start noticing symptoms of a kidney stone:
âą Drink at least 2.5 liters of fluid
âą Drink 1 cup of lemon juice per day
âą Take potassium citrate
Foods to avoid (foods high in oxalates):
âą Spinach
âą Almonds
âą Chocolate
âą Swiss chard
âą Beet tops
âą Peanuts
If you consume these foods, here are a few things you could do to help prevent calcium oxalate stones:
âą Consume the food with calcium (for example, a spinach salad with cheese)
âą Take chondroitin sulfate
âą Take berberine
âą Take cod liver oil

Omg! I was gonna say lemon juice! I passed a massive stone all alone at home thinking it was my gallbladder because it was such a severe pain with a fever. Boy oh boy. I drank a cup straight of lemon juice in that little lemon bottle followed by 2 liters of water and later that day, boom I pushed...yes pushed, the stone was so big, I had to push the stone out...never seen anything like it and Im a nurse ..I never seen a stone so big. Yes, I got it from working long hard shifts while dehydrated.....but lemon juice definitely works.
Amazing!
What did you name it đ
I never saw in my life or you just can say, I never saw
As a nurse Iâm sure you know that a fever is indicative of an infection. PLEASE see a urologist next time.
(though I hope you donât have a next time â„ïž)
How big was it? And where did you push it from
Kidney stone is by far the most painful experience I've ever had. Drove myself into town in tears. By the time I got to urgent care, two male nurses met me outside the door in the parking lot and had to carry me in. Passing it was brutal. I'm tough, but I wouldn't wish that pain on anyone.
Same bro Iâve had this 3 times already itâs so fcking painfull man it pisses me off I jsut canât get comfortable
Absolutely agree. Freakin nightmare. It's been 8yrs and I still experience lower back pain from time to time.
* I really think it had to do with a lifetime of sodas, fruit drinks and junk food.
I think its like diabetes, not everyone who eats/ drinks junk will it but if youâre prone to it then eating/ drinking can cause a huge problem.
My doctor ( urologoist who just gave me lithotripsy a day or two before ) told me to go to the hospital with my pain . He said someone will be there with some great pain meds for you. Got to hospital. He couldnt be found nor anyone with the key to the lock on the frig where the medicine was. I was literally BEATING on the door to get back into the area where that frig was. Had to be pulled away. Cant remember anything more than that.

O just want to share my experience. My youngest sister 3 month ago had an episode of back pain for kidney stones. She did the 1 cup of volcano lemon juice for a week and everything disappeared. To the third day she was feeling perfect so thank you Dr. Berg đ€
Thanks for the input ,Well appreciated. Thanks.
Some stones don't move for years , until you do something different like radical sports for instance
Is volcano lemon juice a name brand for organic lemon juice?
Diluted?

I am so happy this video showed up in my stream. I started having pain from kidney stones a few days ago. Lot of great information. Thank for this! Not my first time but sure hope its over soon.
Execellent! This is the video I've been waiting for. †Thank you.
Thank u for your information towards this ...always a pleasure.. Dr
Thank you for such valuable information, Dr. Berg!
Very glad to be of help.
I have been battling with kidney stones for several months ( I was doing keto). My naturopathic Dr. advised chanka piedra/ lemon essential oil in capsules/ lots of water and avoid dairy. I recently passed a few kidney stones. One of them was 6mm . The pain is worst then childbirth. My problem is I like all the foods you are supposed to avoid.
Dr Berg got a video on K-2. I am surprised he didn't mentioned it in this video. Never the less , I suggest you find it and watch it . Good Luck
Think if it like being diabetic, food yiu love can be bad for your condition unfortunately
At the first sign of a kidney stone I didnât know what was causing the pain, only that it was in my back. I went to the local urgent care center and they said that based on the location of the pain that I probably had a kidney stone. Their prescription was to go home and pass it. So, I went home and began drinking all of the water that I could drink. The pain began moving around my side eventually groin area and eventually it was gone. My suggestion for what to do at the first sign of a stone is to drink all the water that you can to flush it out.
I was told not to try and force it out with liquids as it can cause damage to the urinary tract which can also cause infection. Mine is especially large though.
@@Paige-Turnner that makes sense. Somehow the urgent care I visited must have known or assumed that mine was small.
@@bradwilliams4921
If they didnât do any imaging, they shouldâve referred you to somewhere that did. Itâs extremely dangerous to not know whatâs go on with respect to size and location of the stone. My suggestion is to see a urologist if it ever happens again.
@@nunurbusinez8644 thanks
@@Paige-Turnner How large?
You actually are the best.
I have that same pain in my left side with some of those symptoms, Thank you Dr. Berg for this great video.

Thanks for the advice, much appreciated.
Very glad to be of help.
What fluids would you recommend? Cause I watched one of your videos about drinking 8 glasses of water.
I'm a fan, but I'm wondering if you're going to add a disclaimer to your older "smoothie" videos, which recommended spinach.
Thanks a lot Dr Berg for the great video and for great advice, information and tips.

I just wanna thanks. I watch all of your guides about kidney stones. Especially about oxalates. Been through this for a month and half. I pass the stone with size of a mung bean. Without surgery. But still i have to see urology specialist 2 times for the first 2 weeks. And got some medicine to help the stone pass. Drink a lot of water and drink lemon juice, and controling kind of food with oxalate. I'll remember this. Thanks a lot Dr Berg. Hope you always healthy.
So glad it has helped!
Thank you Dr Berg đđŸ
You're welcome, Georgina!
Off topic I know . Can you do a video on how to prevent Urinary tract infections . I have a lot of family members that are getting multiple infections per year ...

Just went through my first episode of having a kidney stone. It was 6mm. Worst pain ever. I think if this happens again, I'm going straight to the ER because at least they can give you the good pain meds that will last you until get the procedure done. But hopefully, there won't be a next time. I've taken steps to avoid ever getting another stone, one of which is increase daily fluid intake to at least a gallon a day. Also, 4 tbsp of apple cider vinegar a day.
D-r Berg is a very smart man !
then why dosent he address this???? for kidney stones?? GET YOUR CALCIUM LEVELS CHECKED AND YOUR PARATHYROID CHECKED
Hi Dr. Berg, I have a question.. Are kidney stones and toncil stones related? I get both unfortunately.
When I take vitamin c supplements it usually increases my oxalates because i always notices painful urination afterwards but I should drink more citrates to decrease oxalates?
Mine came on suddenly. Vomiting & kidney pain that took me to the ER. Now I know lemon water daily & cut back in asparagus & spinach. I was eating both daily.
Not to thank your God Allah
Your God Allah create you ..
I donât believe in God that has two right hand
Good morning
Always excellent information doc.thanks
Great đ I like this. Is calcium supplement no longer recommended: stones plus osteoporosis?

Potassium sometimes gives me irregular heartbeats. What should I do? Does it require a cofactor ?
Would you make a video about saffron sometime please? Thank you.
I really appreciate this video as I need to be on Keto for inflammation and now think I have developed a kidney stone. Yay! One thing I found curious while working on drinking that cup of straight lemon juice was that the site on my shoulder, arm, and hand where I had shingles, and the place on my face and neck where I had no blisters but which continues to be sensitive seem to have fired up. Not sure what that was about but am grateful it didn't last.
Thanks for the info, Dr. Berg!

I had my first & only kidney stone in my life 7 years ago at age 53. I created the âperfect stormâ for kidney stones. I was eating Protein drinks, Beets, & Cola daily. I took 1tbs lemon juice & olive oil as many times as I could during the stone attack -3-4xâs per day. By the 3rd day I was âuncloggedâ my ureter. Worst pain ever resolved naturally.
May I ask. How did you consume the one tablespoon of lemon juice? Did you combine with the olive oil?

My husband used to get kidney stones regularly but thankfully rarely does now. When he does feel like he has one he increases his lemon water intake and takes Chanca piedra (Phyllanthus niruri) also known as âstone breakerâ which has helped immensely, more than anything else he has tried. There are quite a few studies about it to refer to.
Oh! That's why there's a line in a poem that goes like "saxifrage! I am a flower that splits the rocks"
I always thought it was in the sense of wild grass growing in the cracks of pavements but now i take it to mean "rocks" as kidney or gall bladder stones.
Awesome!
I try it. Where do you get from. Looking for organic quality
Can you post what products item or manufacturer who makes it. I'm not sure if it is a liquid, powder, pill, or oil or a plant. When I search the item it has so many.
I think it comes in liquid or pill form. Be careful about buying it in an alcohol base, as that tends to destroy it's effects.

Hi @Dr Berg, besides high oxalates food that will cause kidney stones,
What about high purine food? Thanks in advance for covering this đđ»
We can try to look at this.
Thank you @@Drberg
Keep well and stay safe
I have had 4 or 5 kidney stones. Extremely painful. During my last stone I learned about lemon juice. That was 6 years ago. I havenât had a stone since I started drinking lemon aid on a regular basis. Every time I get a little twinge in my back it still scares me thinking another stone. But so far so good. The most important advice is keep your kidneys hydrated!
Lemon diluted in water? Just lemon water or did you add something?
@@tonzcantclimb I make lemonade from concentrated lemon juice. 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, two tablespoons of sugar, fill glass the rest of the way up with water and ice. The sugar isnât good for you but lemon juice is too tart. I would suggest if you donât want the sugar, to just add a few drops of lemon juice to your water every time you have water.
I've passed so many my left side stays tender all the time. If someone touches me there I jump. Dehydration is the main cause of them.

Does Magnesium citrate any role in kidney stones
Hello Dr. Berg, I would like to ask, if the magnesium is related somehow to development of kidney stones? What if we take some amount of Magnesium Glycinate?
Dr.berg said Magnesium citrate and potassium citrate works great in kidney stone. Magnesium glycinate works for better sleep at night.
I remember drinking all that water then the stone blocked off the tube. I was headed to the operating room then just before they came to get me it passed. Talk about pain. đą
Thank you! I just went to the doctor for a UTI, had about half the kidney stone symptoms. I normally drink 2 liters of water a day, but only drank 2 or 3 cups of water for several days because I was distracted đ€Ș
Paid for that!
Dr berg you always know exactly what to post. Can you read my mind?đ
ÎCV is what dissolved mine.. never birthed the stone..once, it took the pain away in minutes.. best to take before the stone falls from the kidney along with lemon juice!
one of the top remedies! thought it would be recommended in this video
What was the size of acv dosage?
@@beingsshepherd Hi there, well I can't remember exactly, I would take about 2-3 tbsp of unfiltered acv with some water at least x3 (throughout the day), sometimes even more depending on the pain.. I'd usually start with more, until the pain gradually faded within a few days.
I'd also drink lemon juices as well.. they work fine too, first time I got a stone I stuck to those since I didn't know of acv.. but acv is more powerful if you can take it, so I combine both remedies..
Never passed an actual hard stone and I've been through this four times. I believe they dissolved as I 'd monitor my pee for a whole week even after the pain went away..lol
what I got were the common calcium stones which are easier to break down but it's said to work well on the uric acid stones too
Last time, I was feeling some mild familiar pulling back pain which only got stronger bothering me for about an hour.. had run out of acv so I rushed to the kitchen and sipped on some plain filtered vinegar, I could not believe my pain went away after 5 minutes! Saved myself the heating pad that night! You're extremely lucky if you catch it as long as it's still on the kidney, it sure works much faster in dissolving it before the pain kicks :)
@@mialargo9388 That's very helpful (and comforting).
Thank you Mia.
@@beingsshepherd Happy to hear it helped you dear, hope it works for you! But I really wish we won't have to go through this ever again!
Maybe o bit of acv with our meal daily would be a perfect preventative measure :)
I had kidney stones removed many years ago as a female. Iâll try to drink more water each day.
Dr.Berg I have kidney stone I just want to ask is it OK to drink almond milk? I donât eat the almond but I want to know if itâs OK to drink the milk I love your program keep up the good work.

@Channelinterrupâą Youâre absolutely correct my first kidney attack I was screaming and crawling around on the floor thatâs some major pain. I ended up in the emergency room.
Iâm just getting over a kidney stone and they think it was causing my pancreatitis and itâs been two months and Iâm finally getting better from my pancreatitis
Bless you
@@kylefer thank you
What did you do to get over your kidney stone?
I think I have kidney stone and hurting my pancreas
@@livdouglas3410 Pretty much just drink water with fresh squeeze lemon and didnât eat anything except for frozen fruit bars and I was on nausea medication and pain meds non-narcotic but are use the nausea medicine more than the pain meds. But basically I just did lemon water cut out all my sugars bad carbs and change my whole diet and I lost 40 pounds in two months but with pancreatitis you have to be very careful what to eat I eat the very minimum because the pain was so bad I was afraid that it would come back
@@scentualobsessions how long did it take for the pain to go away?
I have not had most of the symptoms --however still got a diagnosis of a kidney stone?? so maybe I do have one, but I had thought and felt I have gallstones, I have the paler poo and lots of belching..and cannot eat large amount have to be careful what I eat, can Ultra sounds get it wrong? I guess the appearance of a kidney stone is quite clear?
This may be a dumb question but would MINUTE MAID ZERO SUGAR LEMONADE have any juice or citrates to help?
Just two small wedges of lemon in water daily helps keep to them away. Discovered some foods I may been over consuming đ that have high oxalates. I think I will be adding buttermilk onto my salads again, to help prevent stones.
If I take the vitamin D3 can I still take some multivitamin and which one you can recommend thanks

This is great information, thank you! Just had shock wave done on an 8mm stone. Iâve seen a lot of recommendations for horsetail root to aid in passing stones. What are your thoughts?
How much did shockwave cost?
Chanca Piedra tea or tincture IF, IF, IF the stone is a calcium oxalate type.
I just passed 3 stones unassisted and with regular Tylenol back to back over past 6 months. All around 5mm in size. I have one more big one to pass. The thing that spurred the passage of my stones was increasing my water and lemon juice intake from 2 liters/day to MINIMUM 3 liters/day. I am sick of lemon water now, but there is no tasty other options. I gave up coffee, green tea, alcohol and juices because of oxalate levels. This sucks. đ«
