Does sex help with kidney stones?
I'm dealing with the agony of kidney stones right now. I heard an old 'nuska' that says having sex might help to pass them. Does sex really help with kidney stones, or is it just folklore?

Man, I haven't slept in two days because of my baby crying, but hearing that sex helps pass kidney stones is the most interesting thing I've read all week. Honestly, if you have the energy for it while in that much pain, go for it!

This might help for tiny stones, but the most practical solution is to drink lots of water and lemon juice. Don't rely on myths; keep a track of your urine color and consult a local doctor if the pain becomes unbearable.

Keep your mind positive and do not stress, dear. The body has its own way of healing when you are relaxed and happy. Just take care of your health, drink pure water, and trust the process.

Before trying anything, go to a government or budget lab and get an ultrasound done for 800 rupees. If the stone size is small, you can easily pass it with cheap ayurvedic syrups like Cystone and lots of water, no need for expensive treatments.

Bhai, look, if the stone is 8mm or 10mm, nothing other than medical treatment is going to help. Stop looking for shortcuts on the internet, go get an ultrasound, and follow the doctor's advice.

It might relax the muscles slightly, but what you eat is what really matters. Avoid foods high in oxalates like spinach and tomatoes, and drink coconut water. Proper diet is the best way to prevent stones from forming again.
