Kidney Stone Management

A kidney stone is a solid, pebble-like piece of material that can form in one or both of your kidneys when high levels of certain minerals are in your urine.

Kidney stones may form quickly or slowly over time. They can cause sudden and severe pain. Kidney stones rarely cause permanent damage if treated by a health care professional.
