What is a kidney stone?

Kidney stones are a painful condition that affects millions of people worldwide. They are formed by the accumulation of crystals in the urine, caused by an imbalance of certain substances such as calcium, oxalate, and uric acid. These crystals can stick together and form a hard, pebble-like mass in the kidneys. There are four main types of kidney stones: calcium oxalate, uric acid, struvite, and cystine.

Symptoms of kidney stones can include severe pain in the lower back, blood in the urine, nausea and vomiting, fever and chills, and urine that smells bad or looks cloudy. The size of the stone can affect the severity of the symptoms. The larger the stone, the more noticeable the symptoms will be.
