What Are Kidney Stones?
3. Uric Acid Stones
It is important that we remain well hydrated, and it can even be dangerous to us if we don’t. However certain medical conditions, such as chronic diarrhea, can make it a lot harder for us to remain hydrated. In addition to being potentially dangerous dehydration can cause other problems, such as uric kidney stones.
Genetics is also sometimes a cause of the condition, and people that eat a high protein diet are also at a higher risk. Certain metabolic conditions can increase a person’s risk of developing uric acid stones, while people with diabetes are also more likely to develop the disease.
