2Kidney stones and summer, are they related
Kidney stones that are also called as renal
calculi or nephrolithiasis are the hard deposits
that are formed inside the kidneys these deposits
are generally made up of minerals and salts.
There are several reasons and causes that can
cause kidney stones, diet, excess body weight,
some medical conditions and certain use of
supplements are the most common reasons. Kidney
stones are effective and can affect any part of
the urinary tract that is from the kidneys to the
bladder.
There are basically four types of kidney stones
that is formed inside the body calcium oxide ,
uric acid, struvite, and cystine. After the
kidney stone is formed it makes day in the kidney
or can travel down to the urinary tract into the
urethra, sometimes the tiny stones that is
present move outside the body in the urine
without causing any effective pain, but when the
stones does not move it can cause back up urine
in the kidney which can cause excessive pain.
Symptoms of kidney stones-
Some of the kidney stones are as small as a grain
while others are as large as a pebble, decides of
the kidney stone depends on the severity and
time. It's a general rule the larger the size of
the stone will be the more noticeable the
symptoms will be, some of the most common
symptoms of kidney stones are-
3- Severe pain in lower back
- Blood in the urine while urination
- Stomach pain that won't go away
- Fever and chills
- Bad odour Of urine
- Vomiting and nausea

Kidney stones and summer-
The summer season is also called as the kidney
stone season, even in the summer season doctors
see an increase in the kidney stone cases when
the weather warms up. Kidney stones are basically
solid and are often irregularly shaped formations
that are made up of acid, salts and minerals.
Kidney stones can travel into the Ureter, ureter
is the tube that connects kidney and urinary
bladder, this can cause extreme lower back pain
and groin Discomfort.
4Most of the people during the summer season come
along with the same kind of complaint that is
usually a sign of stone getting removed, what is
the reason behind this well about 80 of the
kidney stones are free dominantly based off
calcium, There are many studies that show the
body appear to produce more calcium in the urine
during the summer season, having too much calcium
in the urine can lead to increase in the chances
of kidney stones.
And especially during the summer season heat
humidity and dehydration or lack of proper
hydration these are some of the factors that lead
to higher prevalence of kidney stones. The most
dominant reason that comes along is the amount of
water we take in and use.
Causes -
Heat-related dehydration-Â Inadequate daily water
intake and extreme sweat can cause dehydration
and associated kidney stone risks. Specifically,
individuals residing in hot regions or dry
climatic conditions are higher risk
groups. Age-Â Commonly, kidney stones impact
older mid-age groups due to calcium accumulation.
However, recent lifestyle causes, including
obesity amongst the younger population, have
widened risks across age groups. Diet-Â High
protein, salt, and sugar intake can increase
kidney stone risk. Particularly, excess salt
raises calcium levels for the kidneys to filter,
which increases the risk of forming stones.
5Excess weight-Â Excess body weight/mass and
obesity can cause kidney stones. Pre-existing
medical conditions-Â Certain medical conditions
and surgeries raise risks. Namely, digestive
disorders like chronic diarrhoea, inflammatory
bowel disease or gastric bypass surgery. These
conditions alter the digestive process, impacting
calcium and water absorption, which increases
stone-forming substances in the urine. Similarly,
patients with regular urinary tract infections,
hyperparathyroidism, cystinuria or renal tubular
acidosis are at risk. Certain dietary
supplements, including vitamin C, calcium-based
antacids, laxatives, or depression and migraine
medications, raise certain risks.
