A kidney stone is a hard, crystalline mineral material formed within the kidney or urinary tract. Kidney stones usually originate in kidneys ,but can develop anywhere along the urinary tract. Kidney stones are referred as Nephrolithiasis. When there is a decrease in urine volume and if an excess stone forming substance is in the urine kidney stones are formed. Dehydration also is a main cause for stone formation.
Stones are mostly made of calcium oxalate, phosphate.. Eating fewer oxalate –rich foods can reduce your risk of developing this type of stone.
