What are kidney stones?

Also known as renal lithiasis, kidney stones are solid, small deposits which form inside the kidneys. Made up of acid and mineral salts, kidney stones tend to affect any particular part of the urinary tract (kidneys to bladder). Often, urine gets concentrated leading minerals to stick together and crystallize, forming stones. Though, no permanent harm is caused by kidney stones, yet passing them can be very painful. Depending upon the situation, an individual with kidney stones may need to drink enough water for passing the stone and certain pain relievers. However in few other instances, the doctor can suggest surgery. Certain preventive treatments recommended by your doctor can help decrease the chances of recurrent stones.
