Kidney stones or urinary tract stones are the top urology’s issue in Cambodia. Many patients came to see me when they’ve had suffered from the stone pained or any complications related to the troublemaker that so called the- stone. When I have asked them about their lifestyle or daily routine habits as well as their medical history, there’s something make sense that they should’ve had a very risky of the kidney stones formation. Literally, those entire odd habit problem it can be fixed, ignorance and shrink it to the minimum.

I’m going to show how to get away from the Kidney stones problems!
- Drink plenty of water and stay away from the heat atmosphere
One of the easiest ways for the prevention of the kidney stones problem is to make sure that water you have drink is at least 2.5 litres a day. There is a literature proved that it will lower your risk up to 15% if you drink adequate water. Also you should’ve stay away from a hot weather because it will make you sweat, sweating will cost you more evaporated so if you cannot stay away from the hot then you got to drink more water in order to replace the evaporation.
- To balance your physical body in shape
Obesity at the rate of BMI > 30 kg/m2 tends to make urine lower in pH which is putting you at risk for uric acid stones formation. More than that, if obesity issue happens from an unhealthy food consuming, likes a high protein diets, high sodium and lower fiber for instant, all of those elements will actually double the risky rate of kidney stones matters.
- Having family history of the kidney stones
The genetic also related to the over-excretion an ion in urines. If you have family history of the kidney stones, the numbers will cost you at 2.5 times increasing risky rate than a family who regardless of the history of stones. Basically, it is good to discuss with your primary doctor about the benefit of surveillance with non-invasive tools like ultrasonography.
- A moderate calcium diets
The majority of the kidney stones in this world contained calcium ions. But anyway, we didn’t recommend you guys to avoid the consuming of the calcium-containing diets. Why? Because low calcium consumption is the risk element that can cost you either to face up with the kidney stones formation. Normal-calcium consuming around 800 – 1,200 mg per day is an optimal value. Remember, not too much and not too less.
- More concentration with an Oxalate-rich diets
There’s a tons of scientific-proved data that a high oxalate intake will putting you at risk of the kidney stones. Dark chocolate, Tofu, Spinach, Potatoes, Black tea, Beans, Rhubarb, Beetroot, these are the sample of the oxalate-rich items. On the contrary, these kinds of foods are good for our heart as well. My recommendation is, try to diversify your meal, and don’t repeat for having the same topping of the oxalate diets in every single meal time you have. The number of oxalate intake a day should less than 50 mg per day.
- A moderate protein diets
A high protein diets more than 2 g/kg/day can make urine lower in pH which is putting you at risk for uric acid stones formation and it also excreted more calcium in urines. The optimal value of protein consuming a day is at 0.8 g/kg/day – 1.4 g/kg/day. This formula can be used either for an animal proteins or plant proteins.
- Avoid vitamin C supplements
When an ascorbic acid metabolized in our body, it turns to be an oxalate substantial which is a major cause of the kidney stones formation. Less than 1,000 mg of Vitamin C per day is the recommendation. If more than that 40% increasing will put you at risk of stones formation, the reports said that.
- A high Citrate diets
Citrate is a rich-containing in Citrus fruit for example Lime and Lemon. They named it as a “Stone inhibitors”. Citrate has a potential to prevent stone forming activity, increasing urine pH and inhibit calcium oxalate stones crystal. The question is how much we should take citrate a day to get the benefits? 4 ounces of pure lemon juice or 32 ounces of prepared lemonade per day is required. Any questions, you can feel free to discuss with me.

Thank You. I’ve been fortunate over my long life in that I have had to make very few visits to the hospital, but I do remember well the regular trips to my local pediatrician as a boy in the suburbs of New York, and I was reminded of them during my visit to Dr. Soarawee. Yes, he is a top-tier world-class urologist, among many other things including being one of the few physicians, certainly in this part of the world, trained in the use of the Da Vinci Robotic Assisted Surgery system. But it was his generosity in taking the time to sit down with me and answer all my questions both before and after my procedure, his ‘family-doctor’ style bedside manner when he came up to my room to see how I was feeling, all of these human touches from a very busy guy who was constantly flying around the region, that impressed me most. Dr. Soarawee also treated my condition successfully, and I awoke after a few hours to find all of the unpleasant symptoms gone. I can’t thank him enough for his skill, and his compassion.
I highly recommend Dr. Pommy, who is a Specialist, in a league of his own.He has given my wife a second lease on life. He is thorough with his investigation and takes the time to explain the prognosis in layman terms. My wife cannot express enough in words of how Blessed she has been to have found this rare gem of a Specialist! Thank you for taking care of my wife.

I was in excruciating pain when I went to see Dr. Pommy, the Chief Urology Department, Royal Phnom Penh hospital in Cambodia at about 9:00 AM. He surprised me by telling me that I could be treated in the afternoon. After being hit with 7,000 shock waves, NO MORE kidney stone, and no more pain. At the same time, my creatinine levels returned to normal after the treatment that day. It was like killing two birds with one stone. I highly recommend lithotripsy treatment for kidney stones. The treatment was virtually painless and I had relief almost instantly. Dr. Pommy was very kind and professional in handling my health issues.

Dr. Pommy is great!, On a recent routine check-up, I discovered a kidney stone and cyst on my kidney. I was advised to see Dr. Pommy for a follow-up, and i’m glad that I did as he is the premier urologist in my area (Cambodia). If you simply Google his name, his experience and credentials are the first things you encounter. Dr. Pommy is accessible and answered my questions in a well-thought and knowledgeable manner. He assured me that my new discoveries (stone and cyst) were nothing to worry about with a relatable explanation that broke down the science/results. He is very patient oriented, and is willing to answer any follow-up questions with further explanation. If you are in Asia (Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam), and in need of an expert opinion or consultation, Dr. Pommy is a great person to speak with.
