Permanent kidney stones and coping with it

The formation of calcium stones is more common in stone-forming kidneys; those who have had kidney stones before should be careful of subsequent stones and subsequent pain.
Kidney stones are one of the diseases that there is a possibility of recurrence of kidney stones for every person. Anyone who produces and passes kidney stones once is not a stone maker, but is prone to repeat stone formation and may experience kidney stone removal 1-2 times a year. slow
Dr. Mohammad Reza Nowrozi, urology specialist, said: Everyone should pass kidney stones once in their life. It is necessary to be under the supervision of a urologist, and the removal of stones more than once requires a metabolic examination. Usually, more than 80% of kidney stones are without cause.
Dr. Nowrozi continued: A person who frequently forms stones needs to perform tests on the amount of calcium, uric acid and magnesium excretion in 24-hour urine.
In addition to this, the parathyroid gland, which is responsible for regulating calcium in the body and depositing it on the bones, may have a problem and suffer from hyperparathyroid disease, in which the hormone pgh is increased and secreted, which results in excessive calcium removal from the bones. and in this case, in addition to the fact that the person becomes susceptible to osteoporosis, the increase in the amount of calcium in the blood and its saturation increases the possibility of stone formation.
This urology sub-specialist said: In the case of people with kidney stones, regular examinations are necessary in terms of limiting salt intake, the amount of liquid consumption and excretion of urine, and the amount of body sweating. In addition, in some people who have frequent stone formation, a large stone may be formed in the kidney without movement and the person does not feel any pain, so pain is not the only sign of the presence of stones, and it is necessary for stone-forming people to perform examinations every 6 months. such as ultrasound, color imaging, etc. should be examined.
In the end, Dr. Nowrozi emphasized: People who have undergone surgery for kidney stones should be examined at least twice a year at regular intervals, and at the end of the day, patients who have passed stones even once should drink plenty of water. The simplest is medical advice.
