Kidney stones, known medically as nephrolithiasis, are hard, crystallized deposits of minerals and salts that build up in the kidney. These are usually formed when urine becomes concentrated and crystallizes. This can be caused by a number of things, potentially affecting any part of your urinary tract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For milder cases, you may be able to pass a kidney stone by drinking lots of water and taking pain medication. Passing a stone can sometimes cause a lot of pain. However, if stones get stuck in the urinary track, they could cause a urinary tract infection. Serious cases such as this may require surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kidney stones are rather prevalent, occuring in almost 13 percent of men and seven percent of women. Those who have already gotten a stone are 50 percent more likely to develop one again within five years, and up to 80 percent more likely within ten years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the signs that you might have a kidney stone include extreme pain in the side and back, pain radiating to the lower abdomen and groin area, pain occuring in waves, problems with urination, nausea, vomiting, and a fever if you have an infection. It is important to see a doctor if you suspect you have a kidney stone, in order to get it treated immediately and prevent it from getting worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are diagnosed with kidney stones, your doctor might recommend one of the following treatments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Treatments for Kidney Stones<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Water<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everyday Health<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you are only suffering a mild case of kidney stones, all you might need to do is to wait it out. Your stones could possibly pass on their own within two to four weeks. In the meantime, drinking a lot of water and other healthy fluids could help flush them out of your body sooner. Try to drink around two to three quarts (or 1.9 to 2.8 liters) of water a day. Consuming a lot of water can also benefit you in other ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

2. Pain Relievers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Practical Pain Management<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For milder cases of kidney stones, your doctor might recommend that you wait for them to pass naturally. However, your condition might be causing you pain, or at least some discomfort. If such is the case, you might be prescribed medication to relieve the pain. Over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen and acetaminophen usually work well enough to provide you some comfort. If you are also experiencing nausea, you might also need a drug to ease this symptom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

3. Alpha Blockers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Verywell Health<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If your case of kidney stones is not too severe, one treatment that may help you is alpha blockers. These medications relax the muscles in your urinary tract, which make it easier and faster for your stone to pass naturally. Studies have shown this treatment to be more effective with larger stones, and that it did not seem to benefit smaller stones. In addition, fewer occurrences of pain were reported, as well as a reduced risk of admission to a hospital. While alpha blockers may possibly have some side effects, these are generally tolerable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

4. Ureteroscopy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Renal & Urology News<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Kidney stones that can\u2019t pass naturally may be treated using ureteroscopy. With this procedure, a ureteroscope, which is a small telescope, is inserted through the urethra and bladder, and into the ureter up to the point where the kidney stones are found. If the stones are small enough, they may be snared using a basket device and removed intact. But if the stones are too large, they may be broken up into small fragments using a laser before being removed. The patient is usually put under general anesthesia for this procedure, which may last somewhere between one and three hours. It is most often an outpatient procedure, though an overnight stay at the hospital might be required for more difficult cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

5. Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Medical News Today<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For kidney stones that are too large to pass on their own, your doctor might recommend extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, or ESWL. This procedure utilizes shock waves to break the kidney stones into smaller fragments. These pieces could then pass more easily on their own through the urinary tract. This method is typically done under local anesthesia or sedatives, and is usually an outpatient procedure. After ESWL, the stone fragments usually pass in the urine over a period of a few days following the treatment. This could possibly cause mild pain. But if the fragments are still too large to pass on their own, you may need to undergo ESWL again, or try another treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

6. Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Dr. Ahmed Tawfeek<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

When kidney stones are too large to pass on their own, or if other procedures do not work, percutaneous nephrolithotomy may be done to remove the stones. With this procedure, the stones are removed from the body by inserting a scope through a small incision in the patient’s back. It is usually recommended when the kidney stones have a diameter of more than 2 centimeters (or 0.8 inches), or when they are located in a place where other forms of treatment are not possible. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy is the most effective way to get rid of kidney stones. It is also less invasive compared to a full open surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

7. Parathyroidectomy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Dr. Michael Koeplin<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

One of the causes of kidney stones is hyperparathyroidism, which is a disorder of the parathyroid glands. The parathyroid glands work to control the amount of calcium in our bones and bloodstream. Because at least 90 percent of kidney stones are made up of calcium, a problem with these glands can result in kidney stones. Around 38 percent of men and 20 percent of women with hyperparathyroidism develop stones. If the problem is severe for these patients, one of the most effective ways to treat it is to get a parathyroidectomy, which is a procedure wherein the parathyroid glands are removed. This will also address the other symptoms of hyperparathyroidism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Prevention of Kidney Stones<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although there is no guaranteed way to stop kidney stones from forming, there are still things you can do to prevent them. Here are some of the things that could help prevent kidney stones from forming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Water<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Healthline<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Drinking a lot of water is known to benefit one’s health in many ways. It is in fact one of the best and most commonly-practiced ways to prevent the formation of kidney stones. This works because drinking plenty of water lessens the concentration of waste products in urine. It also triggers more frequent urination, which lowers the chances of stone-causing minerals to settle and crystallize in the kidneys and urinary tract. In addition, this could also flush out tiny stones that may have already formed without your even knowing it. Aim to drink at least eight glasses of water a day to get a good amount of fluids in your system. You might even find an improvement in other areas of your health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

2. Moderate Vitamin C Intake<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Healthline<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We all know that vitamin C is good for us. In fact, it is one of the most commonly taken vitamin supplements. But what you might not know is that high doses of these supplements could possibly lead to kidney stones. This is because the body releases excess vitamin C as a bodily waste product called oxalate, which is usually excreted through our urine. Oxalate sometimes binds to minerals and this may crystallize into kidney stones. One study revealed how high vitamin C intake — especially in amounts greater than 2,000 mg daily — increased the amount of oxalate excreted in the urine. This also increased the risk of developing kidney stones. Make sure you regulate your daily intake of vitamin C, and avoid taking more than the recommended dosage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

3. Consuming Oxalate-Rich Foods with Caution<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Perfect Keto<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Oxalates are a natural compound found in some foods. When they bind to calcium during digestion, they are excreted through stool. Otherwise, they become a waste product that travels to the kidneys to be excreted through urine. If they bind to calcium while in the kidneys, there is a greater risk of developing calcium oxalate stones, which is the most common type of kidney stones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While cutting down on oxalate-rich foods might lessen the chance of getting these stones, doing so may deprive us of the benefits these foods can give us. A better way to prevent calcium oxalate stones is to consume oxalate-rich foods and calcium in a meal together to increase the chance of oxalate and calcium binding to each other while they are still in the stomach or intestines. Some foods high in oxalate include nuts, grains, legumes, spinach, okra, sweet potatoes, beets, raspberries, and cocoa powder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

4. Reducing Sodium Intake<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
US News Health<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Consuming high amounts of sodium, including salt, can increase the risk of kidney stones. This is because sodium increases the amount of calcium in your urine. When oxalate binds to calcium in the kidneys, there is a greater risk of kidney stones forming. Reducing your consumption of sodium can lower this risk. It is recommended to limit daily sodium intake to 2,300 mg, or about one teaspoon of table salt. If you’ve had kidney stones in the past, reduce this further to around 1,500 mg per day. Reducing the sodium in your diet could also benefit your overall health. Examples of foods that may be high in sodium include potato chips, deli meats, smoked meats, canned goods, pre-packaged meals, fast foods, seasonings, and condiments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

5. Reducing Intake of High-Purine Foods<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
NDTV Food<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Purines are a natural chemical compound that are found in foods and drinks. Some foods and drinks contain a higher concentration of purines. The problem with these is that a high intake of purine causes a higher production of uric acid, which the kidneys would need to excrete. The urine becomes more acidic, increasing the risk of developing uric acid stones, which are a common type of kidney stones. To prevent the formation of these stones, it is advisable to reduce your intake of foods and drinks that are high in purines. Some of these include red meat, organ meats, seafood (particularly shellfish), supplements containing yeast or yeast extract, and alcoholic beverages. Beer in particular is especially high in purines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

6. Citrus<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Foods and beverages high in natural citrate can help prevent kidney stones. This is because citrate in urine is believed to stop calcium from binding with other constituents that may cause kidney stones. Thus, consuming high citrate foods and drinks like lemonade, limeade, and certain fruits and juices, is a good preventive measure against kidney stones. However, make sure to be wary of the sugar content, as this could increase your risk instead of lessening it. Opt for sugar-free, or make your drinks at home instead, using a sugar substitute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

7. Calcium-Rich Diet<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"

It’s a no-brainer that good diet choices have a lot of benefits that lead to improved overall health. Being mindful of your dietary habits could aid in preventing a host of ailments, including developing kidney stones. One practice that could help is the way you take your calcium. It is best to get your calcium through your food and drink instead of getting it through supplements. This is because calcium supplements could actually increase the risk of kidney stones. Some of the best sources of calcium are dairy such as milk, cheese and yogurt, dark green vegetables, legumes, nuts, and seeds. To further increase the benefits of calcium, make sure you get a good daily dose of vitamin D, which helps the body absorb calcium better. Some foods rich in this vitamin include egg yolks, cheese, and fatty fishes such as salmon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

8. Exercise<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"

Exercise is one of the best ways for anyone to maintain their overall health. The good news is that a study has shown that even a little exercise each week may lower the risk of getting kidney stones by up to 31 percent. The type of exercise need not be intensive. Even walking or light jogging can be beneficial. However, if you choose to engage in heavy exercise, be careful to keep yourself properly hydrated. Working up a sweat means your body is releasing water, leading to less urine production. Urinating less may cause minerals to settle in your urinary tract and kidney. Drink a lot of water when you work out to make sure that you maintain a healthy frequency of urination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

9. Avoiding Carbonated Beverages<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Bariatric Pal<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

While there is not yet any conclusive evidence linking carbonated drinks to kidney stones, studies suggest that reducing these drinks may lower the risk of recurring kidney stones. One study conducted on kidney stone patients found that those who cut back on soda reduced their risk of getting stones again by around 15 percent. The reason for this is not clear. However, phosphoric acid found in carbonated beverages may increase the acidity of urine. This increases the risk of forming kidney stones. Despite the lack of conclusive evidence, it is still best to avoid carbonated drinks. Doing so would also have a positive impact on your overall health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

10. Taking Medications with Precaution<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"

Medication is sometimes necessary to treat different ailments. However, there are some that can cause kidney stones. Among these are certain antibiotics, such as ciprofloxacin and sulfa antibiotics, some drugs used to treat HIV and AIDS, and some specific diuretics for high blood pressure. While it is not advisable to simply stop taking medications that were prescribed to you to treat an illness, make sure you discuss possible side effects with your doctor when you are prescribed a new medication. If you are told to take something that could cause kidney stones, find out if there are any other options, or ask the best way to take it that would lessen the chance of developing kidney stones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since there is a high prevalence of getting kidney stones, taking preventive steps can go a long way in avoiding them. And should you happen to get them anyway, see your physician immediately to get the problem treated in the most effective way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
