CAUSES OF KIDNEY STONES

Knowing the reason for the formation of kidney stones could help individuals to prevent it in the first place. Some of the common causes are listed below:

  • Dehydration: Not drinking the required amount of water everyday will lead to high concentrated urine hence causing the stones formation.
  • High-Sodium and High-Protein Diets: consuming food with high portion of salt and protein increases the risk of stones.
  • Genetics: Genetic factors can play a significant role, connected to inherited disorders along with a family history of recurrent stones.
  • Recurrent UTIs: Long-term infections can lead to the development of stones.
  • Metabolic Disorders: Hyperparathyroidism is one condition which elevates the possibility of stones.
  • Sedentary Lifestyle: Not engaging in regular physical activities can impact the urinary health.

Common Symptoms of Urinary Stone Disease

As it’s told, prevention is better than the cure. Therefore, it’s quite essential to identify the symptoms soon to ensure minimal complications.

Some common indicators are:

  • Sharp and intense pain in the back or side (flank pain)
  • A scorching or painful feeling when you urinate
  • Haematuria: blood in urine
  • Recurrent UTIs, or frequent urinary tract infections
  • Nausea or vomiting.

Risk Factors for Kidney Stones

Major strands that always lead to stones can be observed, such as:

  • Long term consumption of protein and oxalate rich diets.
  • Inadequate water intake.
  • Obese and sedentary lifestyle
  • Genetic propensity in families

Urinary Stone Disease Management Approach

Our method for treating urinary stones is based on making the right diagnosis with minimal treatment complications.

  • Diagnosis: This includes ultrasound, non-contrast CT scans, urine tests, and metabolic tests to figure out the nature of the stone and formation.
  • Preventive Measures: Personalized hydration regimens, nutritional counseling, and metabolic evaluation to lower the risk of recurrence.
  • Endoscopic Stone Removal: Safe and effective ways to get rid of stones with as little damage as possible.
  • ESWL Kidney Stone Treatment: Shock wave therapy, a non-invasive technique to break the stones.

 

Kidney Stone Treatment Plan

Based on the nature, size and location of the stone the required treatment plan is deduced accordingly:

  • Conservative care: It includes drinking more fluids, using painkillers, and taking alpha-blockers to help the stones to pass.
  • Advanced Surgery: when conservative care is not suitable, it is necessary to perform surgery such as laser lithotripsy or endoscopic surgery that is specific to the size and placement of the stones.

We make sure that each strategy is made as per the condition and lifestyle of the patient. Not all stones require surgery; many can be treated to dissolve on their own with the right care.

Types of Kidney Stone Surgeries

We provide range of Minimal Invasive Kidney Stone Surgery that are aimed to be effective and comfortable as possible:

  • Ureteroscopy (URS)
    It is a procedure in which a narrow scope is sent through the urinary tract to find and break up or remove stones that are stuck in the ureter.
  • PCNL Procedure
    A small cut in the back allows for keyhole surgery, which is best for large or complicated kidney stones.
  • ESWL Kidney Stone Treatment
    Uses shock waves from the outside to break up small stones into pieces that can move through the body naturally.
