Kidney stones are a significant health issue in India, affecting millions due to dietary habits, climate, and genetic predisposition. With advances in medical technology, expert care from leading urologists like Dr. Sadashiv Bhole who has performed over 60,000 successful surgeries in 30+ years ensures effective, minimally invasive, and patient-friendly treatments.
The Growing Burden of Kidney Stones in India
India’s hot climate and dietary factors such as high animal protein intake, low fluid consumption, and lifestyle changes have contributed to an increased incidence of kidney stones, particularly in Central India. Kidney stones can cause severe pain, urinary obstruction, infections, and potentially long-term kidney damage if untreated.
Common Causes of Kidney Stones
- Dehydration: Low fluid intake leads to concentrated urine, increasing crystallization risk.
- Diet: Excessive animal protein, salt, and oxalate-rich foods contribute to stone formation.
- Metabolic Disorders: Conditions like hyperparathyroidism and renal tubular acidosis affect stone risk.
- Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections: Certain infections promote struvite stone development.
- Family History: Genetics also play a role in susceptibility.
Prevention Tips From Dr. Sadashiv Bhole
Dr. Sadashiv Bhole advises:
- Drink 4 to 5 liters of water daily to maintain dilute urine.
- Adopt a balanced diet low in salt and moderate in animal proteins.
- Limit oxalate-rich foods if prone to calcium oxalate stones.
- Avoid excessive vitamin C and D supplements without medical advice.
- Manage underlying medical conditions with regular checkups.
