Causes:

Kidney stones are common. Some types run in families. They may occur at any age, including in premature infants.
There are different types of kidney stones. The cause depends on the type of stone.
Stones can form when urine contains too much of certain substances that form crystals. These crystals can develop into stones over weeks or months.
Calcium stones are the most common. They are most likely to occur in men between the ages of 20 to 30. Calcium can combine with other substances to form the stone.

Oxalate is the most common of these substances. Oxalate is present in certain foods such as spinach. It is also found in vitamin C supplements. Diseases of the small intestine increase your risk for these stones.


Calcium stones can also form by combining with phosphate or carbonate.
Other types of stones include:
Cystine stones can form in people who have cystinuria. This disorder runs in families. It affects both men and women.

Struvite stones are mostly found in men or women who have repeated urinary tract infections. These stones can grow very large and can block the kidney, ureter, or bladder.

Uric acid stones are more common in men than in women. They can occur with gout or after receiving chemotherapy for some types of cancer.

Other substances, such as certain medicines, also can form stones.

The biggest risk factor for kidney stones is not drinking enough fluids. Kidney stones are more likely to occur if you make less than 1 litre (32 ounces) of urine a day.

Symptoms
You may not have symptoms until the stone moves down the tube (ureters) through which urine empties into your bladder. When this happens, the stone can block the flow of urine out of the kidneys, causing pain.
The main symptom is severe pain that starts and stops suddenly:
Pain may be felt in the belly area or side of the back.
Pain may move to the groin area (groin pain), testicles (testicle pain) in men, and labia (vaginal pain) in women.
