How do i know if im passing a kidney stone?

Haan na, kidney stone pain is really very terrible. It comes in waves and doesn't let you sit or lie down comfortably. If you also feel a burning feeling while passing urine or see pinkish color in it, it's definitely a stone. Better to get an ultrasound done quickly to see the size.

If you suddenly feel like a tiny ninja is stabbing you in the lower back from the inside, congratulations, you might be passing a stone! Honestly, the pain is legendary, so you won't miss it. Just drink loads of water but definitely visit a doctor for some proper pain relief before you lose your mind.

With my thyroid issues, I have learned that metabolic changes can sometimes affect how our body processes calcium, leading to stones. If you have severe, cramping pain in your back or side, along with a frequent urge to pee, go to a urologist. Get a sonography and follow up regularly to manage it.

I always advise people to avoid high-oxalate foods like raw spinach and tomatoes if they are prone to stones, and to stay well hydrated. If you are passing a stone, you'll feel sharp, severe pain in the back and ribs, and sometimes nausea. Please consult a doctor and don't try to resolve acute pain with diet alone.
