Metabolic stone

Metabolic calculus (s. Metabolicum; synonym: k. Primary) is a hard stone that is formed as a result of the deposition of salts and minerals in the kidneys or bladder. This stone can be very dangerous to health as it can block the urinary tract and cause serious health problems.

The reasons for the formation of metabolic stones can be different. Some of them include genetic predisposition, poor diet, excess calcium in the body, and kidney and bladder diseases.

Symptoms of a metabolic stone may include pain in the kidney or bladder area, frequent urination, blood in the urine, and sometimes fever. If left untreated, this stone can lead to serious complications such as urinary tract infection, kidney failure, or even death.

Treatment for a metabolic stone can vary and depends on its size, location and other factors. In some cases, surgery may be required to remove the stone. In other cases, conservative treatment may be used, which includes medications and lifestyle changes.

To prevent the formation of metabolic stones, you need to monitor your diet, drink enough water and undergo regular medical examinations. It is also important to monitor your blood calcium levels and take medications to lower them if necessary.

Metabolic stones are stones that form in the kidneys and bladder due to metabolic disorders. They can be either single or multiple.

The main reasons for the formation of metabolic stones are:

– Metabolic disorders such as hypercalcemia (increased levels of calcium in the blood), hyperuricemia (increased levels of uric acid in the blood) and hyperphosphatemia (increased concentrations of phosphate in the blood).
– Insufficient fluid intake and poor diet, which can lead to the formation of kidney stones.
– Hereditary predisposition to the formation of stones.

Symptoms of metabolic stones may include lower back pain, abdominal pain, frequent urination, blood in the urine, fever, nausea and vomiting.

Treatment of metabolic stones depends on their size, location and the presence of complications. In some cases, surgery may be required to remove the stones. In other cases, conservative treatment, which includes lifestyle changes, diet and medications, may be sufficient.

It is important to remember that metabolic stones can lead to serious complications such as kidney failure, urinary tract infection, and even death. Therefore, if symptoms associated with the formation of stones appear, it is necessary to consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
