Urinary Stones
Urinary stones, also known as urinary tract stones or kidney stones, are a common condition that affects the urinary system, causing severe pain and discomfort when they occur. The most common type of urinary stones is the calculus present in the urine, which is a hard mineral that forms due to the mineralization of substances in the urine, such as calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium. Urinary stones can form in any part of the urinary tract, but they are most common in the bladder and the kidney. They can range in size from small, mineral deposits to large, block-like structures that can cause blockages. Urinary stones can cause severe pain, which can be described as a sharp, stabbing pain that is often worse when the stone is passed. The pain can be temporary or chronic and can affect the function of the urinary tract. If left untreated, urinary stones can cause severe complications, including kidney damage, sepsis, and even death. Therefore, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible if you experience any symptoms of urinary stones.
