Stoned by Kidney stone

The first symptoms of a kidney stone is extreme pain Its like you want to break in half, based on my experience when I was a kid. I discover that in some kidney health research on what is happening why I experience those kind of pain, Its because of, when a stone moves in the urinary tract it blocks or irritates the area. You can feel a sharp, cramping pain in the back (near the affected kidney) or in the lower abdomen. The pain can also spread to the groin.You can also experience nausea and vomiting. If the stone is not passed right away, pain will continue as the muscles of the ureter is trying to push it out. As the stones grows you may notice blood in your urine (scary!). When the ureters move the stone closer to the bladder, you may feel the urge to urinate more frequently or you may feel the burning sensation during urination. Sad things is I experience it when I was I kid, bloody urine and burning sensation during urination.

A kidney stone is a hard, crystal like mass form from substances in our urine that build up on the inner surfaces of the kidney. The stones vary from shape and sizes, raging from tiny particles that passed out unnoticed in the urine to large branched formations about five centimeters across. They remain unnoticed as long as they stay in place, but even a tiny stone may cause excruciating pain as it leaves the kidney. Kidney blockage and infection. If not relieved may lead to kidney failure.
