Kidney stones are a common yet painful condition affecting millions of individuals worldwide. These hard mineral and salt deposits form in the kidneys and can cause severe discomfort, especially during urination. Understanding their causes and preventive measures is crucial for maintaining kidney health.
At the Kidney and Urostone Centre, we specialize in diagnosing and treating kidney stones with advanced medical techniques. Dehydration, dietary habits, obesity, and certain medical conditions often contribute to kidney stone formation. To minimize risk, it’s essential to stay hydrated, maintain a balanced diet low in oxalates and sodium, and manage underlying health issues.
Treatment options for kidney stones depend on their size, location, and severity. Small stones can often pass naturally with proper hydration and pain management. Larger stones may require medical intervention, such as extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL), ureteroscopy, or minimally invasive surgery.
Preventive care is a cornerstone of our approach. At the Kidney and Urostone Centre, our experts provide personalized dietary and lifestyle recommendations to help patients avoid recurrence. If you’re experiencing symptoms like severe pain, blood in the urine, or nausea, seek professional help promptly.
