Composition:
Nephrolithiasis is the process of forming a kidney stone, a stone in the kidney (or lower down in the urinary tract). The pain with kidney stones is usually of sudden onset, very severe and colicky (intermittent), not improved by changes in position, radiating from the back, down the side, and into the groin or low abdomen. Intense nausea, with or without vomiting is common. Stone migration, and tilting or twisting of the stone with subsequent intermittent obstructions may increase the severity or renewal of the renal colic pain. The severity of the pain depends on the degree and site of the obstruction, not on the size of the stone. There is distension (expansion) of the renal pelvis. Sometimes there is inability to urinate.
The kidneys are responsible to remove waste products and unwanted water from the blood in the form of urine. If there is too much of certain waste products in the urine, these substances form crystals and when the crystals get combined they form stones. The stones may be happy to lie in the kidney and often do not cause symptoms there. However, when they pass down the ureter or their way to bladder, pain usually occurs. If stones get stuck on its way down to ureter, pain usually occurs in the form of renal colic. Griping pain spreads down to the groin, pain comes and goes in the shape of waves and there is a severe pain as the stone is being passed. There are symptoms of hematuria, burning sensation, urinary tract infection & urine pH is typically greater. Nephrolithiasis compositum is useful to remove the renal calculi of calcium, magnesium, cystin and urate kind of stone.
