If you’ve ever had to pass a kidney stone you know how painful it could be, but the worst part is that if you’ve had kidney stones in the past, you have a good chance of getting them again. Not drinking enough water is the leading cause of kidney stones, but what else puts you at risk for this?
The pain from passing a kidney stone is often compared to the pain women go through when delivering a baby and to think that if you don’t take care of yourself you run the risk of getting them again. Symptoms can include severe pain in the side and back, below the ribs, pain on urination, urinating little or more than usual, and many others.
