Sir, I have a stone of 8mm in left upper ureter, what should I do? Currently I am taking K Mac B6 syrup and Neeri tab, are these useful?
Dr. Praveen Pushkar
Urology
These wont help. If u have pain then its better to get lithotripsy (ESWL) or ureteroscopic stone removal.

Vit B12 or B6 or folic acid deficiencies can increase Homocystein which increased cardiac risk. Start taking folic acid & B12 B6 diet. Go for lipid profile cardiac evaluation
