Ayurvedic Home Remedies to Treat Stones in Urinary Tract(Kidney Stone)

The lifestyle of a person can prove to be one of the major reasons for many diseases. For example, there are people who have an inactive life, loves eating spicy, oily, salty and minerals rich food, does not drink much water or fluids, and avoids going to bathroom till the last minute. These are people who unknowingly invite a disease by name Kidney Stone or Stones in Urinary Tract.

Urinary Tract consists of kidney, ureter, bladder, and urethra. Stones are usually formed in the urinary tract. Calcium, phosphates or oxalates are the key ingredients for the formation of urinary stones.

Kidney stones are nothing but mineral salt deposits which are filtered by the kidney and removed from the body through urine. Urine has a natural ingredient which helps in dissolving these minerals. At times, due to dehydration, the deposited minerals don’t get dissolved and leads to crystallization. This grows large causing obstruction in urine flow through the ureter leading to sharp and severe pain in urinary tract.

The formation of stones is usually in the kidney and it can remain there without any trouble for quite some time. The size of these stones varies from the size of a pin head to that of a grape. These stones that are smaller in size generally dissolve and pass through urine unnoticed. It starts becoming a problem when the size increases and causes obstruction in the path of urine flow.

This is one of the most common problems in men and in Ayurveda it is called Vrukka ashmari. The aggravation of three doshas due to improper diet and lifestyle leads to formation of toxins called ama. This Ama, when travels to urinary tract cause crystallization and formation of kidney stones.

Kidney stones can have either smooth texture or rough and cutting edges. These rough and cutting edge stones can cause excruciating pain when they pass through the urinary tract.

The common symptoms of kidney stones include pain in lumbar region of the kidney, back pain, pain towards genital regions, fever, nausea, vomiting, brown or red color urine due to the presence of blood, urge for frequent urination, insomnia, loss of appetite, pain during urination, etc. If kidney stones are not treating it can lead to kidney failure.
