Kidney stones are the result of a buildup of dissolved minerals on the inner lining of the kidneys. They usually consist of calcium oxalate but may be composed of several other compounds.Kidney stones can grow to the size of a golf ball while maintaining a sharp, crystalline structure. The stones may be small and pass unnoticed through the urinary tract, but they can also cause extreme pain as they leave the body.

Complications

Kidney stones that remain inside the body can also lead to many complications, including blockage of the the tube connecting the kidney to the bladder, which obstructs the path that urine uses to leave the body. According to research, people with kidney stones have a significantly higher risk of developingchronic kidney disease.

   

Symptoms

Kidney stones can vary in size. Some have been known to grow as large as golf balls.

A kidney stone usually remains symptomless until it moves into the ureter. When symptoms of kidney stones become apparent, they commonly include:

• 1. severe pain in the groin and/or side.
• 2. blood in urine.
• 3. vomiting and nausea.
• 4. white blood cells or pus in the urine.
