Kidney Stones

Kidney stones are hard and unwanted deposits made of minerals and salt that form inside your kidneys. The main reason behind these deposits is the accumulation and crystallization of minerals in the kidneys, as urine contains many dissolved minerals and salts.

Kidney stones can start small but can grow larger in size. The small stones normally make their passage along with urine but the large size stones fail to make their passage through the duct and start getting accumulated until the point when they start obstructing the urinary duct. This stone can therefore, be termed as kidney stones.

Types of Kidney Stones

Calcium Stones

Most of the kidney stones are calcium stones, usually in the form of calcium oxalate. Oxalate is a naturally occurring substance found in food and is also made daily by your liver. Some fruits and vegetables, as well as nuts and chocolate, have high oxalate content.

Struvite Stones

These stones form in response to an infection, such as a urinary tract infection. These stones can grow quickly and become quite large.

Uric Acid Stones

Uric acid stones can form in people who don't drink enough fluids or those who eat a high-protein diet. These stones occur in 5-10% of the population.

Cystine Stones

These stones form in people with a hereditary disorder that causes the kidneys to excrete too much of certain amino acids (cystinuria).

Symptoms of Kidney Stones

A kidney stone will cause symptoms when it moves around within your kidney or passes into your ureter, the symptoms are as follows:

  1. Severe pain in the side and back, below the ribs.
  2. Pain that radiates to the lower abdomen.
  3. Pain may come in waves and fluctuates in intensity.
  4. Pink, red or brown urine.
  5. Pain on urination.
  6. foul-smelling urine.
  7. Nausea and vomiting.
  8. Persistent need to urinate.
  9. Urinating more often than usual.
  10. Fever and chills if an infection is present.
  11. Urinating in small amounts.

Causes of Kidney Stone

Kidney stones usually have no definite, single cause, but several factors may increase the risk of kidney stones such as:

Diet

Diet can also affect the chance of forming a stone. One of the more common causes of calcium kidney stones is high levels of calcium in the urine.

Obesity

Obesity is a risk factor for stones. Obesity may change the acid levels in the urine, leading to stone formation.

Medical Conditions

Some medical conditions cause a risk of kidney stones. The abnormal growth of the parathyroid glands, which control calcium metabolism, can cause high calcium levels in the blood and urine. This can lead to kidney stones.

Medications

certain medicines, such as diuretics (water pills) or calcium-based antacids can cause kidney stones.

Family History

The probability of having kidney stones is much higher if you have a family history of stones, such as a parent or sibling.

PCOD

polycystic kidney disease or another cystic kidney disease can increase the risk of kidney stones.

  • Less consumption of drinking water.
  • High intake of diet rich in protein, sodium or sugar.
  • You have had gastric bypass surgery or another intestinal surgery.
  • If your urine contains high levels of cystine, oxalate, uric acid or calcium.
  • Any disease that causes swelling or irritation in your bowel or your joints.
  • Medications – certain medicines, such as diuretics (water pills) or calcium-based antacids can cause kidney stones.

Ayurvedic Treatment of Kidney Stones

The kidney stones treatment in ayurveda includes certain facts that support the cause of kidney stones. According to Ayurveda, improper diet and lifestyle lead to aggravation of all three doshas and causing the formation of toxins (ama) in the body. These toxins will travel down the ducts carrying urine, where aggravated doshas combine with it, causing its crystallization and accumulation further leading to the formation of kidney stones. In Ayurveda, it is regarded as Vrukka Ashmari (vrukka means kidney and ashmari means stone)

The kidney stones treatment in ayurveda involves the use of diuretics and various stone-dissolving herbs in acute cases. The body is then cleaned and strengthened using toning and rejuvenating preparations. Panchakarma therapy is a very effective means of cleansing the body internally in order to regain its strength.

Home Remedies

Along with the Ayurvedic kidney stones treatment in India some home remedies to cure kidney stone are-

  1. Soak 2 teaspoons of radish seeds in a glass of water, boil and reduce it to half. Strain and drink 1/2 cup of it twice a day to cure dissolving kidney stones.
  2. Take 60 grams of kidney beans. Crush these. Boil slowly for four hours in four liters of water. This liquid should be strained through fine muslin and then allowed to cool for about eight hours. Then, pour the liquid through another piece of muslin, without stirring. Drink this liquid once daily.
  3. Boil 10-12 basil leaves in 1 cup of water for 15 minutes. Mix 1 teaspoon of honey in it and have it twice a day.
  4. Regularly practice yoga poses, meditation, pranayama vs a sedentary lifestyle / too much exercise (in the case of a large stone, or hypertension).

Preventions/Lifestyle

The natural treatment of kidney stones can be done by following some preventive measures and lifestyle changes such as:

  1. Avoid tea, coffee, alcohol, cold drinks, pickles, fish, poultry, meat, spinach, and chocolate.
  2. Sour, heavy, and dry food should be avoided.
  3. Increase intake of fluids like water, juice, soup, lime water, etc.
  4. Drink Usually 1 to 2 liters of water per day.
  5. Increase uptake of barley, gram, ginger, and brown or parboiled rice.
  6. Avoid suppressing urges to urinate and defecate.
  7. Avoid consumption of too much salt.
  8. Reduce intake of meats, eggs, and poultry which are likely to increase the amount of acid in urine.
  9. Increase the uptake of whole wheat bread, vegetable proteins, pulses, and sprouted grains as these are a good alternative source of proteins, nutrients, and fibers that reduce the risk of kidney stone formation.

The Benefits of Ayurveda for Kidney Stones treatment at Prakash Nethralaya

Investigates The Root Cause

The Ayurvedic approach to illness looks for the fundamental causes of the disease rather than symptoms. The main causative factor of the disease is removed from the patient's daily routine. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, treatment is decided from the available two directions as per the classics. First one is Shodhan (detoxification) to clean the body with the help of Panchakarma therapies and the another is Shaman (balancing the doshas) by using Ayurveda medicines, diet correction and lifestyle adjustments. Detoxification with Panchakarma improves the efficacy of Ayurveda medicines in chronic and advanced cases.

Medicines Are Safe To Take

Ayurveda medications are not manufactured in a synthetic or chemical form but in their natural state. Because of this, the herbs are gentle on the body, and there is no chance of side effect or adverse reactions, regardless of the length of time the patient takes them. At Prakash Nethralaya, we use the best quality Ayurveda medicines to ensure the safest and fastest recovery. There is in house processing and dispensing of the medicines for our patients. A few medicines are made available from the good manufacturing companies also.

Uses Holistic Strategy

Ayurveda is based on the idea that each person has a distinct personality and body type and, as a result, their treatment. Ayurveda places more emphasis on treating the patient rather than treating the ailment. The physical composition of two different people with the same ailment may need a different therapeutic approach. An Ayurveda expert at Prakash Nethralaya uses this body type analysis and then reaches at a conclusion of diagnosis and the line of treatment. Accordingly our doctors prescribe the diet, lifestyle changes, yoga, Ayurveda medicines, and Panchakarma therapies.
