Yes, they can grow if more mineral deposits accumulate. While drinking lime water and staying hydrated can help prevent small stones from growing, you must see a doctor if you have severe pain or if the stone is already quite large.

They definitely grow, and ignoring them is a huge mistake. I ignored a minor back ache for months, and by the time I went to the doctor, the stone had grown so big it required surgery. Please go get a checkup immediately before it worsens.

Yes, they can grow bigger. It is best to get regular scans to monitor their size.

They grow faster than my patience, honestly. I ignored my water targets and now my doctor says the stone has grown bigger, keeping me awake with back pain all night. Chug your water, guys.

I panicked like crazy thinking my tiny stone would grow into a giant rock overnight! But my doctor reassured me that they grow very slowly and with proper hydration and diet, you can prevent them from getting bigger. So take a deep breath, it's manageable.
