Urinary stones
Do you know that 10-20% of all population has urinary stones!!!
It's true.... but not all of them show symptoms.
It's more common in middle aged men especially in hot climates as in Egypt...
Pain is the cardinal symptom of urinary stone. Either dull aching pain in the flanks.... or sudden severe excruciating pain in your loin radiating to the groin and can be associated with nausea and vomiting....
painful bloody urine or pus can also be a warning sign of stones...
Can urinary stones be a dangerous health hazard?
Absolutely.... Stones can causes your kidney to stop working in severe cases and also it can predispose for cancer bladder...
How can i avoid urinary stones?
It's true that some people are stone makers and other are not. Yet, any one who does not drink a sufficient amount of fluids is very liable to get stones....
- Drink at least eight 8-oz glasses of water daily ( refer to your physician if you have a history of kidney or heart disease to supply you with a suitable fluid chart. )
- Limit your intake of caffeinated and alcoholic beverages — they promote the production of urine, so you'll lose water.
