| Kidney stones are formed in the kidneys or urinary tract. The stones are mainly formed from chemicals like uric acid, calcium, phosphorus, and oxalic acid, found in the urine. Kidney stones usually cause severe pain when passing down the urethra on their way to the bladder. The pain is first felt in the side and, thereafter, in the groin and thighs. Symptoms of kidney stones are a frequent desire to urinate, painful urination, scanty urination, nausea, vomiting, sweating, and chills. Home remedies have been used for years in curing and sometimes bringing relief to kidney stone sufferers. |
