Hi
Thanks for your query.
If you have recurrent stones you must visit a nephrologist who will do some blood and urine tests to see if you have some metabolic abnormalities which makes you prone for stones. If anything is detected the doctor can advice appropriate diet or other measures.
Meanwhile you can drink 3.5-4L water every day, cut back on high salt foods.
Good luck
