Hot environment & Kidney stone
It's very hot summer season & increase in humidity recently. recently there is increase in stone incidence by 30%.
there is direct relationship between kidney stone and environment change. Increase perspiration cause dehydration and decrease urine output which enhance kidney stone formation.
I suggest u to take few precautions to prevent kidney stone
1) Drinks plenty of water during day time and before going to bed..ensure u pass more than 2 liters of urine/ day.
2) Avoids strenuous exercise in hot environment
3) Drinks lemonade which prevents stone formation
