Can you actually see dissolved kidney stones?

Question

few years ago I had one and drank lots of lemon juice and water and next time I went to the doctor, the stone reduced and was not required surgery. But I could not see the dissolved kidney stones when I went to the bathroom! Could they have dissolved some other way so you can't see them or what? Can you actually see dissolved kidney stones?

Answer 1

How to see them when they are dissolved? They just not visible.

Take a look at my lens which is very valuable for any one who suffers from kidney stones and want to get rid of them.

Answer 2

When something dissolves, it is no longer visible, since it separates into individual components (usually ions or molecules).

Answer 3

They won't completely dissolve. Sometimes they'll break up. Indeed that's what lithotripsy is for: to make a big stone into a bunch of grains of sand, if you will..
