The best thing you can do to prevent future kidney stones is to drink a lot of water, even more than the recommended eight glasses a day. Someone who is prone to kidney stones should actually drink 12 to 14 glasses of water a day. Drinking water will help your kidneys to more effectively flush out the things that can cause kidney stones. The Mayo Clinic suggests passing about 2.6 quarts of urine a day.

Water as a Cure. To flush out a kidney stone, try drinking a large amount of water--two quarts should do it--and wait 20 minutes to give your kidneys a chance to increase their fluid volume. Then exercise! Run up and down the stairs or march vigorously around the room. There's a good chance the stone will dislodge.

Under the usual conditions of life, 3 – 4 liters of fluids a day will provide 2.5 to 3 liters of urine volume, and this is enough. The average healthy adult bladder holds about 1/2 liter, so this means 7 – 9 bathroom trips in 24 hours.
