What is a Kidney Stone?

A kidney stone is a solid mass formed from minerals and salts that accumulate in the kidneys. These stones can vary in size, from tiny grains to larger, more obstructive stones that can cause severe pain. The condition can affect anyone but is more common in individuals who do not drink enough water, have a high-sodium diet, or have a family history of kidney stones.

While small kidney stones may pass naturally through urine, larger stones often require medical intervention to break them down or remove them entirely.
