Kidney Stones – Stork Hospital, Hyderabad
Effective and Patient-Focused Kidney Stone Care
Advanced laser and minimally invasive technology to safely remove stones, relieve pain, and restore optimal kidney function.
Kidney stones are hard deposits of minerals and salts that develop when urine becomes concentrated, allowing crystals to form and clump together. While some stones are small enough to pass unnoticed, others can be large and cause severe discomfort, urinary blockage, and potential kidney damage. At Stork Multispecialty Hospital, Hyderabad, our urology specialists use advanced diagnostic tools and modern treatment techniques to remove stones safely, relieve symptoms, and reduce the risk of future occurrences.
Causes and Risk Factors
Kidney stones develop due to high concentrations of minerals in the urine, often driven by lifestyle and physiological factors:
Recognizing the Symptoms
- Sharp, cramping pain in the back, side, or lower abdomen
- Persistent pain or burning sensations during urination
- Hematuria (blood-stained pink, red, or brown urine)
- Cloudy or unusually foul-smelling urine indicative of stones
- Nausea, vomiting, or fever if a secondary infection develops
