It is often said that the pain of passing a kidney stone can be compared to the pain of childbirth. These stones get stuck in the kidneys as well as the tubes that make up the urinary system, and it is thought to be due to dehydration, the inability to store water in the body, a high meat or protein diet, as well as high consumption of sugary and caffeinated drinks. Kidney stones can be unbearable with regard to pain, and some people may need water and some pain management medication in order to pass them, while others, due to the largesse of said stone may need surgery in order to remove it. Kidney stone removal surgery must be performed with utmost care, as well as adhering to a certain standard of care that other medical professionals follow in order to keep the patient safe and healthy.
