Treatment for Kidney Stones in Delhi
Kidney stones develop due to an accumulation of excess salts and minerals in the kidneys. These organs play a crucial role in eliminating waste and fluids from the body through urine. When the concentration of waste surpasses that of fluids, it leads to the formation of solid masses known as kidney stones. While some individuals may not experience any discomfort, others may endure varying degrees of pain.
If these stones travel to the ureter, patients may endure sudden and intense pain in the lower back, potentially leading to severe complications. Kidney stones can range in size, from as small as a grain of sand to as large as a golf ball.

Diagnosis of Kidney Stones
The urologists at Pristyn Care are highly experienced in conducting a thorough diagnosis for kidney stones. The diagnosis may include a physical examination, in which the doctor will ask about your medical history and current medication if you are taking any. However, to detect the underlying cause, the doctor would recommend a few diagnostic tests:
- Blood test – A blood test can reveal the amount of uric acid or calcium in your body. The test can also help evaluate the health of your kidneys and decide upon the necessary treatment. Imaging tests – Ultrasound, X-ray, and CT scan are usually done to confirm the existence and size of the kidney stones.
- Urine test- The urine culture is mostly recommended to detect the level of infection in the body.
4 Methods for Kidney Stone Removal
After the results of the diagnosis, the doctor will initiate and advise the best-suited kidney stones treatment according to the condition.
- ESWL (Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy) – It uses shock waves to break the kidney stone into small pieces that can move through the urinary tract & pass from the body.
- Lithotripsy (Ureteroscopy) – In this, the ureteroscope is passed through the urethra and into the ureter to remove a stone using laser energy.
- RIRS (Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery) – It is a procedure for doing surgery within the kidney using a flexible ureteroscope to remove the upper ureter and small kidney stones.
- PCNL (Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy) – It is a minimally invasive procedure in which large kidney stones are removed through a small incision in the skin.

Different types of kidney stones
Knowing the type of kidney stone is necessary to determine the best line of treatment and reduce the risk of getting the stones again in the future. Following are the different types of kidney stones:
- Calcium stones – These are the most common type of kidney stones a person may develop. Calcium stones form due to deposits of calcium oxalate. Causes of calcium stones include high amounts of vitamin D, ill-dietary habits, intestinal bypass surgery, and metabolic disorders.
- Struvite stones – Struvite stones may form from a urinary tract infection. These stones grow faster than any other type and do not show any symptoms in most cases.
- Uric acid stones – These stones often form when people lose too much water from their bodies due to conditions like chronic diarrhea. They can also form when a person’s protein intake is too high. Genetic factors like diabetes can also be a reason for uric acid stones.
- Cystine stones – People with a hereditary disorder called cystinuria can develop kidney stones. Cystinuria is a condition in which the kidneys excrete too much amino acid.
