A kidney stone is a hard, crystalline mineral material formed within the kidney or urinary tract.
mall masses of salts and minerals that form inside the kidneys and may travel down the urinary tract. Kidney stones range in size from just a speck to as large as a ping pong ball.
The size of the stone is important, but where it is located and whether it obstructs or prevents urine from draining can be just as important.
The leading cause of kidney stones is a lack of water in the body.
The location of the stone and its progress through your urinary tract can affect the type of symptoms you experience. Many people describe the feeling of kidney stones as a sharp pain on one side of their back or lower abdomen.
You may be advised to wait until you pass your kidney stone when you go to the toilet, and to try to collect it from your urine. You can do this by filtering your urine through gauze or a stocking.
