Optimum Urology and Gynaecology Clinic

Kidney stones are not caused by diet alone. Many factors like dehydration, metabolic conditions, infections, genetics, and certain medical problems can increase the risk of stone formation. When minerals and salts in urine become highly concentrated, crystals can form and gradually develop into kidney stones. Since every patient is different, proper medical evaluation and testing are important to identify the exact cause and prevent recurrence. If you experience severe back or abdominal pain, burning urination, blood in urine, fever, or vomiting — seek medical advice without delay. May 15, 2026 Call now
