What Are Kidney Stones When Should I Call a Doctor? If you have a kidney stone, you may already know how painful it can be. Most kidney stones pass out of the body without help from a doctor. But sometimes a stone will not just go away. It may even get larger. Your doctor can help. You should call a doctor when you have 1.Extreme pain in your back or side that will not go away. 2.Blood in your urine. 3.Fever and chills. 4.Vomiting. 5.Urine that smells bad or looks cloudy. 6.A burning feeling when you urinate. These may be signs of a kidney stone that needs a doctor's care. What Do My Kidneys Do? Your kidneys are bean-shaped organs, each about the size of your fist. They are located near the middle of your back, just below the rib cage. The kidneys are sophisticated trash collectors. Every day, your kidneys process about 200 quarts of blood to sift out about 2 quarts of waste products and extra water. The waste and extra water become urine, which flows to your bladder through tubes called ureters (YOOR-uh-ters). Your bladder (BLAD-ur) stores urine until you go to the bathroom.

Pharmacies Kidney Stones Advertising WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW Kidney stones are rock-like concretions of minerals that form in the kidney. There may be more than one stone, and they may be large or small. Men get kidney stones more often than women do. Causes An illness called gout can cause kidney stones, as can a blockage of urine or a large amount of calcium in the urine. Too much calcium from food, vitamins, or other sources can contribute to formation of the stones. Signs/Symptoms Typical symptoms include sharp mid-back pain, blood in the urine, painful urination, nausea, and vomiting. Care To help the stone pass, drink 3 quarts of water (the equivalent of 8 soda-sized cans), each day. A heating pad set on ""low'' may help ease the pain. Your doctor may also prescribe pain medicine. If the stone doesn't pass naturally, you may need to be hospitalized Risks Kidney stones can cause long-term kidney problems that in rare cases can be fatal. But with proper treatment, serious problems are unlikely.

@import "/css/style.css"; Home About the Hospitals Donate or Volunteer Contact Us ... Kidney Stone Questions and Answers About Kidney Stone Management More than a million Americans are hospitalized each year for the treatment of stones. Kidney stones are most prevalent in people age 20 to 50, are more common in men, and are most prevalent in Caucasians. Roughly 2 to 5 percent of the general population suffers from stones, and patients generally face a 75 percent chance of recurrence without intervention. Most stones are formed and excreted singly. Kidney stones come in virtually any color, though most are yellow to brown. They also come in a variety of shapes and sizes. The composition of the stone may tell something about how it is formed. What Is a Kidney Stone? A kidney stoneor renal calculusis a hard mass of mineral matter that is large enough to block the flow of urine from the kidney. This blockage will often occur in the kidney's drainage tube (the ureter) and cause pain. Over time, obstructing stones can also result in significant kidney damage. Nephrolithiasis is the medical term for the presence of stones in the kidney. Kidney stones are composed of various salts or mineral crystal deposits and form on the inner surfaces of the kidney. The formation of kidney stones is actually a disease process, which occurs gradually over time. What Are the Symptoms of Kidney Stones?

77. Kidney Stone Signs And Symptoms kidney stones attacks are extremely painful to endure and difficult to selfdiagnoseunless you know what symptoms to look for. Kidney stone signs and symptoms. http://nd.essortment.com/kidneystones_rclg.htm

Kidney stone signs and symptoms Kidney stones attacks are extremely painful to endure and difficult to self-diagnose unless you know what symptoms to look for. Here are some signs and symptoms of kidney stone trouble. Anyone who has ever had the misfortune of enduring a kidney stone attack will tell you exactly how painful this condition can be. In fact, the pain is most often compared with the pangs of natural childbirth. This is no exaggeration or wishful thinking. The stabbing and shooting pains that accompany a major kidney stone attack can bring you literally to your knees, unable to even drive yourself to proper medical attention. While major pain-killers such as Demerol can do wonders for the immediate discomfort, a victim of a kidney stone attack must still face days of intravenous fluid treatments and possible surgical intervention before getting substantial relief. A permanent change in diet and lifestyle is often required, and the patient still faces the chance of several reoccurances over a lifetime. Prevention is the true key to avoiding serious kidney stone attacks, but heredity and gender are usually working against those who have a predisposition to kidney disease. So what are the warning signs and symptoms of a kidney stone attack? It's difficult to be specific, because you may experience any combination of some general symptoms. Some kidney stone sufferers may feel a dull, non-descript pain in their lower back for days, while others are suddenly crippled by extremely sharp pains. These symptoms and warning signs are intended to be a general layman's guide to self-diagnosing a possible kidney stone attack, not a substitute for proper medical attention. If you feel pains that are unrelenting and strong, seek a doctor's care as soon as possible. Don't wait until the actual attack begins- a simple in-office urine test can usually diagnose a kidney stone condition long before the actual attack.
