When substances in your urine become highly concentrated, hard mineral deposits known as kidney stones develop inside the kidneys. While some tiny stones pass naturally, larger ones can block the urinary tract—resulting in severe pain, blood in the urine, nausea, vomiting, or difficulty urinating.

Kidney stones affect people of all ages, and they can recur if the root cause isn't addressed.
