Can we take calcium tab in kidney stones
From last few months i am suffering from little knee pain(felt it for the first time while doing squat exercise) and now pain has also come in my hand fingers. My doctor examined me and wrote calcium and d3 chewable tablets which i have to take twice a day. I have three stones in my kidneys . 3.5 mm in right and 3.8 and 4.0mm in left kidney. I told him that tablets can increase risk of more stones. He told me to drink 5 litres water everyday. My heart is not ready to take these tabs but i am also concerned about my bones. Please advice me what should i do?

Best isbto get ca and d3 level checked
If your levels are fine no need to take.
Regarding your water intake 2-3 Lt is more than enough.
