WHY SHOULD WE GO FOR KIDNEY STONE TREATMENT
Having stones in
kidney is a very complicated and serious disease with devastating
effects on health & life.
1-The stone formation
may be one of the by products of more generalized disturbance or
illness like metabolic syndrome, which includes diabetes, high blood
pressure, obesity, raised lipids & heart problems or over activity
of parathyroid glands in neck, with resultant raised calcium level
in blood
2- a stone may cause
excruciating pain in the area, which can disturb the routine activities.
The pain killer medicines affect the stomach with formation of ulcers.
These medicines also affect the kidney function and may precipitate
t kidney failure. It is also pertinent to mention that pain has
no direct relation with the gravity of disease. Some times, a small
stone can cause very severe and unbearable pain and a large stag
horn stone does not cause so much pain and silently destroys the
kidney
3- stone can cause
infection and kidney infections do not cure so easily with resultant
poor health & long sickness. After eradication of chronic infection,
kidney shape doesn't reverse to normal, rather irregular due to
fibrosis, with resultant high blood pressure & kidney failure.
4- stone can cause
blood in urine (Haematuria) with resultant blood loss, weakness,
pale face, anemia and poor health
5-Stone can block
the kidneys (hydronephrosis) and destroy the kidney tissue (parenchyma)
with loss of kidney function & reduction of kidney reserves.
6- Stones can cause
retention of urine, which is an emergency and needs immediate intervention
to relieve the problem and safe the kidneys from back pressure.
It is very important to know that kidney tissues ( parenchyma) does
not regenerate and once destroyed, the loss is irreversible and
permanent. The message is try to get the treatment of kidney stones
as early as possible from some qualified doctors or urologists and
don't waste your time with hakims, quacks and doing some experiments.
The kidneys are very precious for life. The longer the stone will
remain in kidneys, the more it will destroy the kidneys and cause
complications.
