    Causes of kidney stones:

    1. First of all, if the local water quality is hard water or water with high calcium content, the incidence of stones is definitely high. If the patient has the habit of drinking strong tea on weekdays or the patient does not have the habit of drinking a lot of water, he is also prone to stones.

    2. Secondly, if you simply supplement calcium without exercising, it is also easy to form stones. In today's society, there is no lack of calcium under the condition of a normal diet, but why are there still many people who have osteoporosis? It is because calcium is not absorbed.

    3. The cause of kidney stones is closely related to diet. For example, eating spinach, bayberry, tomato, cocoa, chocolate, pepper, potato, chili, tofu and other foods that are easy to promote the deposition of impurities in the urine.

    4. The occurrence of kidney stones may also be related to other diseases of patients, such as patients with hyperparathyroidism, the probability of kidney stones is high.

    5. In addition, the occurrence of stones is also related to occupations, such as steelmakers, who sweat a lot on weekdays, and are prone to stones.

    Through the above information, you should be able to understand the causes of kidney stones, the main reason is the accumulation of oxalic acid in the body, so patients should pay attention to eating less whole grains, spinach, beets and other foods. But despite this, if you have related symptoms, you should pay attention to the hospital in time for examination, stones less than 1cm, you can drink Chinese medicine Yu and poke it, relieve pain, and help dissolve stones. Drink plenty of water and wait for it to drain on its own;

    What are kidney stones? How is it formed?

  3. Anonymous users2024-02-04

    The causes of kidney stones are very, very complex, and kidney stones are generally divided into two categories, one is metabolic stones, the other is non-metabolic stones, and non-metabolic stones are mainly infectious stones. The most common metabolic stones are calcium oxalate stones, and there are rare metabolic stones with uric acid stones, which account for about 9%-10% of the population. In addition, there are about 1% cystine stones.

    These three types are relatively common metabolic stones, metabolic stones are mainly with the birth of the human body, there may be a lack of certain enzymes, which will produce cystine stones. Uric acid stones are mainly caused by obesity, uric acid metabolism and purine metabolism of the human body. At present, calcium oxalate stones are not particularly clear from the overall research, and most people think that it is different from the intestinal absorption of oxalic acid and the ability of the human body to excrete oxalic acid, resulting in abnormalities and even leading to oxalic acid stones.

    The cause of infectious stones is mainly urinary tract infection of the human body, especially in some young and middle-aged women or elderly women, the female urethra is relatively short, and bacteria enter the bladder or kidney ureters, which will produce stones.

    In general, kidney stones are usually caused by improper diet and excessive intake of calcium oxalate. It mostly occurs in young adults, and if you are diagnosed with kidney stones, you must adjust your eating habits, drink more water and urinate frequently to speed up your metabolism. Specific symptoms include hematuria, lumbar mass, and urinary closure.

    If the stone is very large, it is necessary to perform surgery in time**.

    In layman's terms, kidney stones are formed because of the formation of conditions that are easy for the deposition of crystals in the urine in the parts of the urine where the urine flow rate is slow, while multiple stones are formed and present because there are multiple deposition centers, and the crystals in the urine will continue to precipitate on these centers, and eventually multiple stones are formed.

    Kidney stones are mainly caused by the accumulation of crystalline substances, such as calcium oxalate and calcium urate in the kidneys, and there are many factors that affect the formation of stones, such as age, gender, race, genetics, environmental factors, dietary habits and occupations, patients who are bedridden for a long time, nutritional deficiencies, urinary tract obstruction infection or foreign body patients are prone to stone formation, and the body has metabolic abnormalities, such as hyperthyroidism or hyperglycemia patients are also prone to stones.

    Kidney stones are caused by the abnormal accumulation of oxalic acid and calcium in the kidneys, and many foods in daily life, if consumed in excess, will greatly increase the risk of kidney stones, such as oxalate-rich foods, such as spinach, soy milk, etc., as well as purine-containing foods, red meat, carbonated drinks, alcohol, etc., excessive consumption can cause kidney stones.

    The process of kidney stone formation is such that the patient eats certain foods, and these foods will form kidney crystals, and after the kidney crystals gradually polymerize, kidney stones are formed. Foods that affect the formation of kidney crystals are mainly foods that contain more purines.

    1. Kidney bai

    Functional failure. The main danger of kidney stones is:

    DU can lead to kidney failure.

    Zhi exhausted. If the DAO fruit is allowed to develop kidney stones, the final version may develop into kidney failure, which is commonly referred to as uremia. Secondly, if ureteral kidney stones block the ureter, the urine in the kidney cannot be discharged smoothly, which will lead to hydronephrium, and the urine will accumulate in the kidney for a long time, secondary infection, and even uremia, threatening the life of kidney stone patients.

    2. Local injury.

    The appearance of kidney stones can cause local damage, small and mobile stones, the damage to local tissues is very light, large and fixed staghorn-shaped kidney stones can make the renal calyce, renal pelvis epithelial cells fall off, and ulcers, fibrous tissue proliferation, neutrophil and lymphocyte infiltration, resulting in fibrosis. This is also one of the dangers of kidney stones.

    3. Cause urinary tract obstruction.

    Excessive oxalic acid accumulation (25%):

    The accumulation of oxalic acid in the body is one of the factors that lead to kidney urinary stones. Such as spinach, beans, grapes, cocoa, tea, oranges, tomatoes, potatoes, plums, bamboo shoots and other things that people generally love to eat, are foods with high oxalic acid. Doctors have found through research:

    200 grams of spinach contains milligrams of oxalic acid, if a person eats all 200 grams of spinach at a time. Some foods are easy to cause stones to fall, 8 hours after eating, check the amount of oxalic acid excreted in the urine is 20-25 mg, which is equivalent to the average total amount of oxalic acid excreted by a normal person in 24 hours.

    Purine metabolism disorder (20%):

    Animal offal, seafood, peanuts, beans, spinach, etc., all contain more purine components. After purines enter the body, they are metabolized, and the final product of its metabolism is uric acid. Uric acid can promote oxalate precipitation in the urine.

    If too much purine-rich food is eaten at one time, and the purine metabolism is abnormal, oxalate will be deposited in the urine and urinary stones will be formed. Attention should be paid to the formation of kidney stones, and people with stones should use Defu's Radix Tea to help them pass out.

    Too much fat intake (15%):

    Meat from various animals, especially fatty pork, is a fatty food. Eating more body fat will inevitably increase, fat will reduce the calcium that can be bound in the intestines, thus causing an increase in the absorption of oxalate, if there is a failure of excretory function, such as sweating more, drinking less water, less urine output, kidney stones are likely to form in this case. Therefore, doctors often say that in order to prevent stone disease, you should drink more water on hot days, and drink more water when you eat oily and watery food, so as to promote smooth urination and dilute the urine composition, which will reduce the risk of getting stones.

    Increased sugar content (10%):

    Sugar is an important nutrient for the human body, and it should be supplemented frequently and appropriately, but adding too much at once, especially lactose, will also create conditions for the formation of stones. Experts found that both normal people and stone patients, after eating 100 grams of sucrose, after 2 hours to check their urine, found that the concentration of calcium and oxalic acid in the urine increased, if lactose is taken, it can promote the absorption of calcium, and may lead to the accumulation of calcium oxalate in the body and the formation of urinary stones.

    Protein overload (10%):

    Laboratory analysis of the components of kidney stones revealed that calcium oxalate accounted for in the stones. The reason for such a large proportion of calcium oxalate is that in addition to glycine and hydroxyproline, which contain oxalic acid, protein can also promote the absorption of calcium by intestinal function. If you regularly consume too much high-protein food, the calcium, oxalic acid, and uric acid in the kidneys and urine will generally increase.

    If excess calcium, oxalic acid, and uric acid cannot be excreted from the body in a timely and effective manner through kidney function, the conditions for kidney stones and ureteral stones will be formed. This is the main reason for the increase in the incidence of kidney stones in developed countries in the world today.

    What are kidney stones? How is it formed?

  15. Anonymous users2024-01-23

    The causes of kidney stone disease are:

    1.Poor eating habits. Eating foods that are high in calcium or oxalate, high in purines, etc. There are also foods that are too fine, eat too much meat, and eat too small fiber-containing foods such as vegetables, which will cause kidney stones.

    2.Poor lifestyle. Too little exercise.

    3.It has to do with the living environment and climate. Sweating is profuse in hot areas, and urine tends to concentrate to form kidney stones.

    4.Poor quality drinking water. In some areas, the drinking water is hard water, which contains crystals and calcium, which increases the calcium in people's urine and makes it easy to form stones. In addition, if the amount of water consumed is too small, drinking water instead of drinking water for a long time will concentrate the urine and cause stones.

    Generally, patients with kidney stones will have pain, swelling pain on the affected side, dull pain or renal colic, and percussion pain in the renal area. Hematuria often occurs at the same time as pain, urinary closure, and symptoms of urinary tract infection. They may be asymptomatic or have only mild discomfort in the lower back.

    You can take the Chinese herbal medicine of De Preli. Steiner tea regulates endocrine and helps to expel stones.
