Gallstones are solid particles that form in the gallbladder, a small organ that stores bile produced by the liver. They can be primarily caused by an imbalance in the substances that make up bile, leading to the crystallization of cholesterol or bilirubin. Factors such as obesity, certain diets, rapid weight loss, and genetics can increase the risk of developing gallstones. Symptoms may include pain in the upper abdomen, nausea, and digestive issues, although some individuals may remain asymptomatic.

Yes, kidney stones are more common during hotter periods of the year. The medical name for kidney stones is renal lithiasis.

In some patients a 4mm kidney stone may not need lithotripsy, however, for some patients this may be too large to pass without assistance.

Kidney stones can be left alone to eventually pass through naturally if they are small, but a large one can block urine flow and be extremely painful. Large ones can be broken up by shock wave lithotripsy or ureteroscopy.

TRUE:)

There is no physiological reason why having surgery to remove the uterus (Hysterectomy) would prevent or get rid of kidney stones. If anything, if the ovaries are also removed during the procedure, it may result in more kidney stones because there could be more calcium loss from the bones after the protective hormonal influence is removed with the ovaries.

Can't say I have, but I have a Kidney Stone right now, and that's what I'm experiencing. It's lovely, to say the least.

A lot of stones are found on imaging that never cause any problems. Those can be left alone. Others pass, which is extremely painful, but otherwise not harmful to the long term health. Occasionally, either due to obstructing the urine flow or due to pain, they have to be removed.

Ultrasound is less invasive - i.e. nothing needs to enter a body cavity. The disadvantage is that after the ultrasound breaks up the stones they still have to pass.

I personally haven't no will I hopefully ever have kidney stones, but my ex did. The pain is described as "worse than giving birth." I hear it actually hurts more coming out.

Most kidney stone pain occurs when the stone is traveling through the ureter. The urethra is larger than the ureter. If your body can get the stone to the bladder, you should have no trouble getting it out. It's an odd feeling, but my experience was not painful. A prescription of tamsulosin (Flo-Max) will help dilate the urethra.

Blood is a common finding with a kidney stone, but the sugar has nothing to do with the kidney stone, and deserves further evaluation with a history, exam, and additional lab testing.

One stone that is common contains some calcium with a mixture of phosphate or oxalate. The chemicals are from a normal person's diet and are for important body parts like muscles and bones. A stone that is not as common is formed because of an infection in a person's urinary tract. This kind of stone is referred to as a struvite or infection stone. Another stone, called the urid acid stones, are not as common. The kidney stones that are rare are called Cystine stones. Those are some basics of kidney stones that can help clear up some questions.

Most kidney stones are composed of uric acid, which is a byproduct of the digestion of protein. Kidneys filter uric acid out of the blood, and if the concentration of uric acid is too high, you can get a precipitation of uric acid into a solid form, since the solubility of uric acid is moderate, but not high. Solid uric acid is then a stone, a solid object inside the kidney, where it causes trouble until it passes out with the urine.
