Kidney stones usually develop due to several factors. Kidneys normally filter waste products from the blood into urine. When certain minerals become too concentrated, they can crystallize and gradually form stones.
Common reasons include:
At R P Stone Clinic, we not only remove kidney stones but also identify why they formed. This helps prevent new stones from developing in the future.
Kidney stones are not foreign objects that enter your body. They develop inside the kidneys when minerals and salts naturally present in urine, such as calcium, oxalate, phosphate or begin sticking together. These tiny crystals slowly enlarge over weeks or months until they become a stone.
Sometimes the stone remains inside the kidney without causing symptoms. In other cases, it moves into the ureter (the tube connecting the kidney to the bladder), where it can cause severe pain.
Whether a kidney stone passes on its own or needs treatment depends on its size, location, whether it is blocking the flow of urine, the presence of infection, and how well kidneys are functioning.
Small stones often pass naturally through urine with adequate fluids and medicines. However, larger stones or those causing severe pain, infection or blockage usually require treatment.
Different treatment modalities are:-
After a detailed evaluation of scans and overall health, urologist will recommend the safest and most effective treatment.
Many people believe every kidney stone can be dissolved with medicines. But this is not true. Only uric acid stones can usually be dissolved with medicines that make the urine less acidic. But it takes long time and works only in small uric acid stones. The most common stones – calcium oxalate stones, cannot be dissolved with medications.
However, medicines may still help by relieving pain, relaxing the ureter to facilitate stone passage, treating urinary infection and preventing future stone formation.
Small stones (usually below 5 mm) often pass on their own.Doctor may advise:
However, forcing excessive water intake during severe pain or complete urinary obstruction is not recommended. If the stone is too large or blocks urine flow, waiting too long may damage the kidney.
Not every kidney stone requires an operation. The need for surgery depends on the size and location of the stone, the severity of symptoms, whether it is blocking the flow of urine, if an infection is present and how well your kidneys are functioning.
Many small stones of less than 5 mm pass naturally with medicines and adequate fluid intake. Surgery is usually recommended when:
The aim of kidney stone surgery is to remove the stone completely while protecting your kidney function.
To diagnose kidney stones, doctor will first ask about symptoms, medical history and perform a physical examination. This is usually followed by:
Modern kidney stone surgery is minimally invasive and usually does not require large incisions, allowing faster recovery, less pain and shorter hospital stay.
Kidney stone surgery removes the stones that are currently present, but it does not prevent new stones from forming in the future. If the underlying cause of stone formation is not identified and treated, kidney stones may recur after a few months or even years.
To reduce the risk of recurrence, your doctor may recommend:
Successful kidney stone treatment focuses not only on removing the existing stones but also on preventing new ones from developing.
If left untreated, large stones or stones causing prolonged obstruction and infection can permanently reduce kidney function. Early diagnosis and treatment help protect the kidneys.
