What is a kidney stone?
Contents
Kidney stones are also called renal calculi, urolithiasis, or nephrolithiasis, which from inside the body, and extremely painful, and difficult to get out.
A kidney stone is a hard form of crystal that can form in the kidney, uterus, bladder, or urethra. this hard mass is made up of minerals, and salt.
If urine compounds that consist of calcium, sodium, potassium, oxalate, uric acid, and phosphate, get too high, or if urine becomes too acidic or basic, the particles can clump together and gradually grow into stone.
This crystals type stone will gradually grow over a few weeks, months, or even a year, forming a detectable stone.

Reasons for kidney stone
Kidney stones can be formed due to changes in the abnormal balance of water, salt, and minerals found in urine.
But here are some common causes of kidney stones are:
Lack of water
Drinking too little water is also a common cause of kidney stones, also diet plays a significant role such as eating animal protein, fast food.
Chocolate or dark green vegetables which are high-oxalate foods can also increase the risk of kidney stones in some people.
Urine contrasted
This means – the number of waste products in the urine is more while the water content is less.
For example – if the pipe is carrying a lot of water it also easily carries waste products with it.
But if there is less water in the pipe then the same waste material causes blockage. the same situation applies in form of kidney stones.
Urine contains lots of acids or calcium
If your urine contains lots of calcium or uric acid-like substances and some crystal-forming substances also then the crystal-forming substances start to collaborate with the calcium and the uric acid and form the stone.
Certain medicine
Certain medications can increase the danger of kidney stones such as High BP, urinary parcel infections, and certain kidney problems, like kidney disease.
However proper treatment, eating a well-balanced diet, and controlling can prevent the risk of stone formation.
Symptoms of stone
Signs of kidney stones may not occur until the stone starts to move down the uterus. the serious torment is called renal colic.
When the stone moves through the uterus tract, you may see:
- Pain in the side of the abdomen or waist, which is the most common sign of kidney stone.
- Difficulty in urine
- Blood in urine, due to stone sharp edges
- Bad smell urine
- Cloudy, or foam of urine
- Vomitting, and nausea
In the case of a small kidney stone, it passes without causing, just drink lots of water, which increases push the stone.
Note: Regular yellow or dark yellow urine can increase the risk of kidney stones because yellow urine means – lack of water.
Types of kidney stones
Not all types of kidney stones are made of the same types of crystal.
And by knowing about the type of kidney stone, you can guess the hint reason of its occurrence. they include:
Calcium kidney stone
About 70% of the people with kidney stones have this calcium kidney stone and calcium alone is not responsible for kidney stones.
Understand it like this – Calcium loves oxalate and phosphate, if calcium is combined with oxalate, then it converts into calcium oxalate.
And if calcium is combined with phosphate, then it converts into calcium phosphate.
Oxalate is a compound that is found in some foods, it is also produced as a waste product by the body, and too much oxalate causes ks.
You should avoid foods that are high in oxalates including:
- Peanuts
- Chocolate
- spinach
- potato chips
Uric acid
This type of kidney stone is found in those people whose protein intake is much higher and those with diabetes or metabolic syndrome.
Approx 5% of kidney stone people have this kidney stone. (5/100)
Uric acid stone develops when urine is too acidic. a diet wealthy in purines can increase pee’s acidic level.
Cystine stone
Cystine stone is an amino acid stone, and this stone is rare, cystine is an acid that occurs naturally in the body – leaks from the kidney into the urine.
This kidney stone occurs in 1 to 3% of 100 people.
Infectious stone
kidney infection, also known as struvite stones, is caused by a particular bacteria. this bacteria breaks down the chemicals and then sticks to them which caused kidney stones.
About 15 to 20% of people with kidney stones have this infection kidney stone.
These stones can grow quickly and become quite large.
Diagnoses of kidney stone

Just take 2 to 3 leaves of these plants and chow them properly and then drink enough water.
Do it twice a day. because kalanchoe pinnate contains a special chemical that binds with the calcium oxalate crystals and starts to break them so that they can easily pass through your urine.
It also stops the formation of further crystals and kidney stones.
2. Uro cure: It is an ayurvedic medicine, it is a specific formula for kidney and urinary bladder stones.
Because it contains lots of natural substances such as giloy, Kalami sore, gokuru, etc.
Note: These are specific for the removal of kidney stones, because lots of people use them, and they saw benefits from them.

2. Shock wave therapy: This is most common for treating kidney stones also known as (ESWL) extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy.
In this, a high-shock wave is sent, which strikes the kidney stone and breaks it into small pieces, so that the stone can easily pass through the urinary tract.
3. Ureteroscopy: In this, a doctor uses a long thin tube pipe, which passed through the urinary tract to the location of the stone.
Then the doctor breaks the stone into small pieces with some tools.

- Reduce a large amount of oxalate-containing food, such as spinach, soybean, almonds, beans, tea, soda, sweet potatoes, tofu, coffee, berries, etc.
- Reduce the excessive amount of animal meat because it contains uric acid which enhances the chance of stone.
