Kidney stones are hard deposits of minerals and salts that form in the kidneys. They can be painful when passing through the urinary tract but may not always cause symptoms if they remain in the kidney.
Causes
- Dehydration (not drinking enough water)
- High oxalate foods (e.g., spinach, nuts, chocolate)
- Excess sodium (leading to more calcium in urine)
- Medical conditions (e.g., hyperparathyroidism, gout, obesity)
Symptoms
- Severe pain in the lower back or side
- Pain while urinating
- Blood in urine (pink, red, or brown colour)
- Frequent urge to urinate
- Nausea or vomiting
- Fever and chills (if infection is present)
Homoeopathy treatment approach
Homeopathy offers a natural approach to treating kidney stones by aiming to reduce pain, dissolve stones, and prevent recurrence. It works based on the principle of “like cures like”, using highly diluted substances to stimulate the body’s self-healing mechanisms.
