What are the three regions of the kidney?

I was just reading that the three regions are the outer renal cortex, the middle renal medulla, and the renal pelvis. I hope I got that right. Does anyone know which of these areas is usually affected when someone gets a kidney stone?

I know how overwhelming it is to hear terms like renal cortex, medulla, and renal pelvis when a family member is sick; it used to make me cry with worry. Please take a deep breath. Understanding these regions is just basic anatomy, and with proper medical care, kidney issues can be managed well.

The three regions are the renal cortex, medulla, and pelvis. When I went to Max Hospital for my checkup, the specialist explained how each region functions to filter waste. If you have any medical doubts or reports to read, please ask your doctor clearly rather than trying to guess from internet diagrams.

The three regions are the outer cortex, the medulla, and the renal pelvis. While a low-sodium, plant-based vegetarian diet is excellent for supporting these filtering regions, you must consult a doctor if you are experiencing any symptoms like swelling or pain.
