Kidney Stones Awareness: Common Questions Answered by a Urologist

PACE Hospitals

Listen to

When solid minerals and salts in urine become excessively concentrated, kidney stones can develop within the kidneys. Some kidney stones are tiny enough to pass naturally via the urinary tract, but larger stones can obstruct urine flow, causing severe discomfort, blood in the urine, nausea, vomiting, or difficulty urinating. Kidney stones can affect people of all ages, and if the underlying causes are not addressed, they may reoccur or cause additional complications. 


In this episode of the Kidney Stones Podcast, we will discuss how kidney stones occur, the common risk factors that increase the chances of kidney stone formation, and the warning signs that should never be ignored. We will also explain the different types of kidney stones, the diagnostic tests used to identify them, and why early evaluation is important to prevent complications such as urinary tract infections (UTI) or kidney damage.


Join the PACE Hospitals podcast with Dr Abhik Debnath, Consultant Urologist at PACE Hospitals, Hitech City, as he explains kidney stone prevention, diagnosis, and treatment options, including lifestyle changes, medications, and advanced kidney stone-removal procedures, to support a safe recovery.
