Abstract

Kidney stone disease (KSD) is a type of solid hard mass formation by aggregation of tiny particles in the kidneys. It's a developing urinary tract system disease increasing the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD), compelling the need for kidney transplantation. CKD is a well-known complication of kidney stones because of genetic illness called primary hyperoxaluria, Dent disease, 2-8-hydroxyadenine crystalluria, and cystinuria 3-5. This leads a progressive decrease in Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) and early setting of ESRD. Calcium oxalate, forms at Randall's plaque on the renal papillary surfaces, is the most frequent type of kidney stone. I present my autobiographical case of suffering of left kidney renal calculi with left hydro-uretero-nephrosis. I presented with acute severe pain in left groin and difficulty to walk, tiredness, to a private multi-speciality hospital in Shimoga, Karnataka. I was treated with plenty of oral fluids and medication of potassium citrate, magnesium citrate and vitamin B12 Oral solution syrup and tab Spasmoproxivon 1 BD for a week, Tab Tamsulosin 0.4mg for 1 week has been advised to continue medication.
