Introduction
Kidney stones is a health challenge which is due to the settlement of acidic and salty mineral in the kidney thereby forming crystals in the organs and if not quickly taken care of, the stones may get so big that they now block the urinary tract or damage the kidney; therefore the following should be taken meticulously to avert kidney stones.
How to avert Kidney Stones
- The consumption of alcohol should be reduced as too much of alcohol can cause uric acid accumulation in the body which can consequently foster the formation of stones in the kidneys. Ensure you take alcohol moderately.
- Everyone should try and drink enough water. The body is more than 70% fluids. So taking enough quantities of water will help the liver perform its functions. Water flushes toxins in the body and prevents the early stage formation of kidney stones.
- Consumption of sugary beverages should be reduced because fructose in some drinks can increase an individual's risk of kidney stones; and the more you consume sugary beverages, the less you will have any appetite to drink water. Of course, diminished thirst for water is very unhealthy to the proper functioning of the kidney.
It is worthy of note that a kidney stone usually will not cause symptoms until it moves around within your kidney or passes into your ureters-the tubes connecting the kidney and the bladder .It becomes lodged in the ureters, it may block the flow of urine and cause the kidney to swell and the ureters to spasm, which can be very painful. At that point you may experience these signs and symptoms:
Signs and Symptoms of Kidney Stones
- Severe sharp pain in the side and back Below the ribs.
- Serious pain felt in the lower abdomen and groin constantly.
- Pains in other parts of the body that starts small but grows steadily in intensity.
- Pain or burning sensation while urinating. Other signs and symptoms may include :
- Pink, red or brown urine
Conclusion
Kidney Stones is a very dangerous sickness that should be avoided. So try and do everything within your power to live a healthy lifestyle and avoid the complications associated with kidney stones. Thank you all friends for reading this post.
