The article from MSN, published on January 21, 2025, discusses ureteral stones, detailing their causes, symptoms, treatment options, and prevention strategies. Ureteral stones, or kidney stones that have moved into the ureter, can cause severe pain as they obstruct the flow of urine. Common causes include dehydration, dietary factors like high intake of oxalates, and genetic predisposition. Symptoms include intense pain in the back or side, blood in urine, nausea, and frequent urination. Treatment varies from pain management and hydration to more invasive procedures like extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) or surgical removal if the stone does not pass naturally. Prevention tips include staying well-hydrated, reducing salt and protein intake, and possibly dietary modifications to limit foods high in oxalates. The article emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and lifestyle adjustments to manage and prevent ureteral stones.
