What are Kidney Stones?

• A solid mass made up of tiny crystals is called a
  kidney stone. They are one of the most common
  urinary tract problems. Kidney stones can vary in
  size from a grain of sand to a golf ball. They
  can be very painful when they pass through your
  urinary tract.

How are Kidney Stones Formed?

• Kidney stones form when minerals and other
  substances in your urine crystallize and stick
  together. The most common type of kidney stone is
  made of calcium oxalate. Different types of
  kidney stones can be made of struvite, uric acid,
  or cystine.

Symptoms of Kidney Stones

• The most common symptom of a kidney stone is
  severe pain in your flank (the area between your
  ribs and hips). Other symptoms of kidney stones
  can include
• Pain when urinating
• Blood in your urine
• Nausea and vomiting
• Fever and chills
• You can get up to 50 or more off on any of your
  medical treatments if you book through Plunes
  HealthCare. Moreover, Plunes HealthCare also
  provides you with free consultations for
  your Urology treatments.

Diagnosis and Treatment

• Based on your symptoms and a review of your
  medical history, your doctor may diagnose kidney
  stones. Additionally, they could request imaging
  tests like an X-ray or ultrasound to find the
  stones and confirm the diagnosis.
• The course of treatment will depend on the
  location and size of kidney stones. Small stones
  may pass on their own with painkillers and more
  fluids taken. Larger stones might require surgery
  or other minimally invasive methods of treatment.

Prevention of Kidney Stones

• Here are some tips to help prevent kidney
  stones
• Drink plenty of fluids, especially water.
• Eat a healthy diet low in protein, salt, and
  sugar.
• Avoid taking medications that can increase your
  risk of kidney stones.
• If you have a family history of kidney stones or
  if you have had kidney stones in the past, talk
  to your doctor about ways to reduce your risk.
