Kidney stones or renal calculi are solid substances that are formed in the kidneys or urinary passage due to the accumulation of certain chemicals found in the urine such as uric acid, phosphorus, calcium and oxalic acid. They differ in size ranging from sand, grit and gravel like obstructions to that of a bird’s egg. These stones may stay in the kidney or travel down the urinary tract. They are caused due to concentration of a specific substance in the urine that surpasses its solubility.
