Bladder stones usually result from an underlying condition that is difficult to prevent. However, you can reduce your chances of developing bladder stones by following these tips:
▪︎ Ask your doctor about unusual urination symptoms. Early diagnosis and treatment of an enlarged prostate or other urinary system condition can reduce your risk of developing bladder stones.
▪︎ Drink plenty of fluids. Drinking more fluids, especially water, may help prevent bladder stones, because fluids dilute the mineral concentration in the bladder. How much water you should drink depends on your age, size, health and activity level. Ask your doctor about the appropriate amount of fluids for you.
