A kidney stone is identified as a solid, pebble-like piece of material in one or both kidneys due to drinking less water, obesity, dehydration, certain diets, and also some other medical conditions such as renal tubular acidosis, cystinuria, hyperparathyroidism, and repeated urinary tract infections.
It can be treated without surgery.
Treatment of kidney stones without surgery:
Drinking lots of water during the day can flush out the stones through urine.
Apple cider vinegar can be taken to soften the stones.
Having lemon juice can break the stones and olive oil can pass them.
A technique named extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy breaks the stones into pieces through high-energy shock waves.
