What Are Kidney Stones?

A kidney stone is a hard, brittle mass developed from mineral crystals and calcium deposits that separate from the urine within the urinary tract.

Normally, urine contains chemicals that prevent or inhibit the crystals from forming, dissolving the mineral particles before they have a chance to form a kidney stone.

Kidney stones can come with some acutely painful symptoms, but there are many things that you can do to help your kidneys function naturally. It is important to drink fluids throughout the day to avoid dehydration. Keeping your urine diluted is important to discourage crystals from forming. As a guide, always look at the color of your urine. Clear urine is good, while concentrated (yellow) or dark urine is a sign that you need to take in more fluids.

These inhibitors do not seem to work for everyone, however, so some people form kidney stones. If the crystals remain tiny enough, they will travel through the urinary tract and pass out of the body in the urine without being noticed. Both men and women can suffer with kidney stones.

Every day the body needs to eliminate toxins and waste products. The kidneys are important organs in this process. They filter blood, urine and waste products as well as regulate vital electrolyte levels. When urine accumulates at the kidneys, it filters through a narrow tube the ureter, into the bladder. When the bladder is full, it empties again this time through a larger tube called the urethra.

Occasionally chemicals can crystallize in the urine starting out the size of a grain of sand, but over time developing into a larger stone or renal calculi. These small stones can form in the urinary tract or the kidneys. If the stone is jammed in the ureter it acts as a plug and urine is unable to pass through to the bladder causing the kidney to swell.

This pressure is what causes pain and discomfort, nausea, sweating and vomiting. When the stone eventually enters the bladder, and the stone is passed out of the body, the symptoms of a kidney stone are resolved.

If the deposits and minerals come together to form a solid kidney stone, the pain will be absolutely excrutiating.

Kidney stones may contain various combinations of chemicals. The most common type of kidney stone contains calcium in combination with either oxalate or phosphate. These chemicals are part of a person’s normal diet and make up important parts of the body, such as bones and muscles.
