Kidney Stone Treatment at Genesiss Multispeciality Hospital

Kidney stones are a common urinary condition that can cause sudden severe pain, urinary discomfort, blood in urine, and infection. While some stones pass naturally, others require medical or surgical treatment to prevent complications such as urinary blockage, infection, or kidney damage.

At Genesiss Multispeciality Hospital, BTM Layout, Bangalore, kidney stone treatment follows a structured, urology-led approach, based on symptoms, imaging findings, stone size, location, and risk of infection or obstruction.

What Are Kidney Stones?

• Kidney stones are hard deposits of minerals and salts formed inside the kidneys.
• Stones may remain silent until they move into the urinary tract.
• When stones obstruct urine flow, they can cause pain, infection, or kidney strain.
• Early medical evaluation helps prevent complications.

What Causes Kidney Stones?

• Low fluid intake leading to concentrated urine.
• High intake of salt or oxalate-rich foods.
• Obesity and metabolic disorders.
• Certain medical conditions affecting mineral balance.
• Family history of kidney stones.
• Recurrent stones often indicate lifestyle or metabolic causes.
