The same measures that decrease the risk of a first stone, will decrease the risk of a recurrence. If you drink 2-3 liters of fluid a day and eat one lemon a day, you can cut the chance of another kidney stone down to about 20%. Dr. Caner Dinlenc, a Urologist at Beth Israel Med. Ctr., discusses the kidney stone prognosis. Thanks for this information about drinking 2-3 liters of fluid a day. I did not know about the lemon either. Perhaps, I need a new urologist.
