How To Get Rid Of Kidney Stones

Kidney StonesKidney stones are composed of a compound known as calcium oxalate. When the dissolved minerals accumulate on the inner lining of the kidneys they get converted into deposits of crystalline stones of variable sizes. If the stones are small they pass out of the urinary tract unnoticed but they may cause pain upon exiting. Kidney stones that remain inside the body, cause severe pain and may even block the ureter thus obstructing the outflow of urine.

The main cause of kidney stones is insufficient intake of water. People who drink less than eight to ten glasses of water are more likely to develop kidney stones. Water dilutes the uric acid and maintains the pH inside the kidneys. Lack of water creates an extremely acidic environment in the kidneys which is conducive to the formation of kidney stones. Obesity, a sedentary lifestyle, chronic diarrhea and inflammatory bowel disease can also lead to kidney stones. The main symptoms are pain in the groin, vomiting, nausea, fever, chills, burning sensation during urination, blood or pus in the urine, reduced amount of urine and persistent urge to urinate.
