Researchers have concluded that about one in ten people will get a kidney stone during their lifetime. Kidney stones in children are far less common than in adults.

TYPES OF KIDNEY STONES

1. CALCIUM STONES – These are the most common. They are often made of calcium oxalate. Certain fruits and vegetables, nuts & chocolate have high oxalate content.
2. URIC ACID STONES – These are the second most common. They can occur in people with gout, diabetes, obesity and other types of metabolic syndrome.
3. STRUVITE STONES – These are formed mostly in people with urinary tract infections. These stones can be large and cause urinary obstruction.
4. CYSTINE – These stones form in people with a hereditary disorder called cystinuria.

CAUSES OF KIDNEY STONES

Possible causes include drinking too little water, exercise(too much or too little), obesity, weight loss surgery or eating food with too much salt or sugar. Infections and family history might be important in some people. Eating too much fructose correlates with increasing risk of developing a kidney stone.

SYMPTOMS OF KIDNEY STONES

A kidney stone usually will not cause symptoms until it moves around within the kidney or passes into one of the ureters. If a kidney stone becomes lodged in the ureter, it may block the flow of urine and cause the kidney to swell and the ureter to spasm, which can be very painful. At that point, you may experience these symptoms:

• Severe, sharp pain in the side and back, below the ribs
• Pain that radiates to the lower abdomen and groin
• Pain that comes in waves and fluctuates in intensity

Other, signs and symptoms may include:

• Pink, red or brown urine
• Cloudy or foul smelling urine
• A persistent need to urinate
• Nausea and vomiting
• Fever and chills
