​Kidney stones are hard mineral deposits that form in the kidneys when urine contains high levels of certain substances, such as calcium, oxalate, and uric acid, which can't be diluted properly. These crystals can grow in size over time, forming solid masses that vary in size, from as small as a grain of sand to as large as a golf ball. Kidney stones can cause severe pain when they move through the urinary tract, leading to symptoms such as flank pain, hematuria (blood in the urine), urinary urgency, and nausea. Hence, it is important to identify the warning signs when these are forming inside the body.​
