What are kidney stones?

Kidney stones (also called renal calculi) are hard deposits of minerals and salts that form in the urinary system.

Kidney stones vary in size: from grains of sand to larger stones that can obstruct the flow of urine.

They are one of the most frequent causes of intense urological pain.
