What is a urologist?
Urologists are doctors who detect and treat urinary tract disorders in both men and women. which includes your kidneys, bladder, ureters (thin muscles that carry pee into your bladder) and urethra (the tube that drains pee out of your bladder). They can also diagnose and treat everything that has to do with a man's reproductive system, which includes the penis, testes, scrotum, and prostate.
Kidney stones
More than half a million individuals visit emergency rooms each year with kidney stone problems. A kidney stone affects one out of every 10 people at some point in their lives. A kidney stone is a hard object that is formed from urine chemicals. Calcium oxalate, uric acid, struvite, and cystine are the four kinds of kidney stones. You can pass a kidney stone as little as a grain of sand without even knowing it. A larger one, on the other hand, might obstruct your urine flow and cause significant discomfort. Some claim the discomfort is comparable to childbirth.
Causes
- Dehydration is a major risk factor for kidney stone formation.
- Some medications, calcium and vitamin c supplements may increase the risk of kidney stones.
- Obesity is the risk factor for kidney stones.
- a diet high in protein, sodium and/or sugar.
- Certain genetic diseases. One example is the medullary sponge kidney, a birth defect that causes cysts to form in the kidneys.
Kidney stone symptoms

- Pain while urinating

What are the treatments for kidney stones?
The treatment for kidney stones depends on the size and location of the stone. In the case of a very small stone doctor may tell you to take pain medicine and drink plenty of fluids to help push the stone through your urinary tract. If the stone is large and blocking the urinary tract additional treatment may be necessary.
Treatment options
Ureteroscopy: Ureteroscopy is an outpatient treatment used to treat stones in the ureters (tubes connecting your bladder and kidneys) or kidneys. It can also be used to identify and treat other causes of kidney blockage or blood in the urine. It is performed with the help of a urethroscope (thin tube that has an eyepiece on one end and a tiny lens and a light on the other end )
Shock Wave Lithotripsy (SWL): Shock Wave Lithotripsy (SWL) is a modern, non-surgical procedure used for treating kidney stones, After locating the stone, shock waves are focused on it using X-rays or ultrasound. When shock waves are fired repeatedly on a stone, it generally breaks into little pieces. Over a few weeks, these tiny bits of stone flow out in the urine.
The best way to prevent kidney stones is to make sure you drink plenty of water each day to avoid becoming dehydrated.
