Urinary Tract / Bladder Stones Treatment

Urinary tract and bladder stones are solid deposits that form in the bladder or urinary tract due to concentrated urine, infections, or metabolic imbalances. These stones can lead to pain, frequent urination, hematuria (blood in urine), and urinary tract infections. If untreated, they may cause chronic bladder irritation or kidney damage.
