Is it important to have a lot of small stones in the kidneys?

Whether having more stones in the kidney is serious or not needs to be decided according to the length of time the stones have existed and the degree of damage to the kidney.
If the patient finds the kidney stones in time, and at the same time the stones are small in size and number, and do not cause ureteral obstruction or hydronephrosis, it usually does not matter, but it should be treated in time depending on the situation.
If the patient finds the kidney stone later, and at the same time, the number of stones is larger, it may lead to hydronephrosis, the kidney is compressed, the cortex becomes thin, the renal function decreases and other symptoms, the situation is more critical, and need to be treated in time.
In daily life, patients should drink more water, while timely urination, which is conducive to promoting the discharge of small stones. Usually pay attention to more exercise, appropriate outdoor exercise. Avoid eating food that is high in calcium and rich in oxalic acid, such as spinach, animal offal, tomato, chocolate, etc., or it will easily aggravate the condition.
If patients are diagnosed with kidney stones and the stones are small, they should actively go to regular hospitals for treatment. Pay attention to adjust the lifestyle on weekdays to help the stones to be discharged.
