What is a Kidney Stone:


 A kidney stone is a common disorder of the urinary tract that affects 10% of the population at one point or another. A slightly smaller percentage of men than women are affected.

The pain can be quite severe, depending on the size of the stone and the number of stones that are involved. Many people discover that they have a kidney stone from blood in their urine.

Kidney stones is also clinically known as renal stone disease. There is a small genetic predisposition to developing this disease. It most often occurs in those who are middle aged, but it can occur at any time. 

These are several reasons why Kidney Stones develop. Stones form because of a chemical imbalance in your kidney. This imbalance is caused by too few or too much of a certain mineral(s).  This is why a balanced diet can help prevent future occurrences.
