hello there. since you are having multiple stones, hydration therapy alone wont help you. you will have to go for a surgery. it's called shock wave therapy. in this there will be no incision and its very safe. shockwaves are used to break the stones into a smaller fragments which can easily pass through urine. consult a urologist for further help. regards
