remain in the kidney or move into the ureter, the tube that carries urine from the kidney to the bladder. Some small stones pass with minimal symptoms, while others can cause intense pain, bleeding, urinary blockage, or infection.<\/p><p>The treatment approach depends on the stone&#8217;s size, location, composition, symptoms, and whether complications are present.<\/p><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Common_Symptoms\"><\/span>Common Symptoms<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p>\u2022 Severe pain in the side or back<\/p><p>\u2022 Pain that may move toward the lower abdomen or groin<\/p><p>\u2022 Pain that comes and goes in waves<\/p><p>\u2022 Burning or pain during urination<\/p><p>\u2022 Blood in the urine<\/p><p>\u2022 Frequent or urgent urination<\/p><p>\u2022 Nausea or vomiting<\/p><p>\u2022 Cloudy or foul-smelling urine<\/p><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Kidney_Stones_Form\"><\/span>Why Kidney Stones Form<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p>Stones can form when urine contains high levels of stone-forming substances or when urine volume is low.
