A kidney stone is a hard mass that forms from crystals in the urine. For most people, natural chemicals in the urine keep stones from forming and causing problems.

One of the best things you can do to avoid kidney stones is to drink plenty of water every day. This will help make sure that you urinate frequently to avoid any build-up of calcium or uric acid. Don't underestimate your sweat! Saunas, hot yoga and heavy exercise may sound good for your health, but they also may lead to kidney stones.

What Treatment Options are available for the treatment of stones?

Treatment begins with prevention as ‘Prevention is the best cure’. Treatment depends upon the size of the stone, the size of the stone, the type of stone, the presence of infection or obstruction to urinary flow, renal function and patient preference.

As a general measure, you need to increase your fluid intake to more than 2.5L per day, cut back on salt intake, avoid fruit juices, and soft drinks, and cut back on red meat quantity. Stones smaller in size, usually less than 8 to 10 mm may pass spontaneously or with the aid of tablets to facilitate expulsion. However surgical intervention may be needed if stones are either infected or causing obstruction or the patient symptomatic despite medical measures.

Hydrate with water. Be sure to keep well hydrated, especially when doing exercise or activities that cause a lot of sweating. You should drink 2-3 quarts of liquid or 8-12 cups per day to produce a good amount of urine. Speak with a healthcare professional about the right amount of water that's best for you. Try to avoid sodas (especially those with high amounts of fructose), sweetened iced tea and grapefruit juice.

The following types of medical procedures may be needed to treat stones:
• Lithotripsy
• Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (Nephrolithotripsy)
• Shock Wave Lithotripsy
• Ureteroscopy

To effectively prevent kidney stone formation, staying properly hydrated is crucial. At Swanand Kidney Clinic in Bhosari, we emphasize the importance of drinking adequate fluids—aim for 2.5 to 3.0 litres daily—to dilute urine and minimize the concentration of stone-forming minerals. Additionally, a balanced diet rich in calcium, while limiting sodium and oxalate-rich foods, can significantly reduce your risk.
