Hy Steemit friends, I hope you are all doing great work and enjoying your life.

This post is part of a contest focused on raising awareness.

Stones in kidney are small, hard masses that form in the kidneys when urine is too concentrated with heavy minerals like calcium and uric acid. They may be really small or surprisingly big, trusting me, they hurt. I personally didn't have it, but I know that the pain and whoever has it is unbearable.
Here are some signs to look out for:
Sharp pain in your back or side
Pain or burning when you pee
Blood in your urine
Feeling nauseous or even throwing up
Peeing more often than usual
If you ever feel something like this, it’s best to see a doctor right away. Don’t wait, it’s not something to mess with.

There are a few common things that can lead to kidney stones:
Not drinking enough water (yup, dehydration is a big one).
Eating too much salt or sugar.
Being overweight.
Drinking too many sodas or energy drinks.
Genetics sometimes it just runs in the family.
Prevention Tips:
Drink water: The one of the best effective way to prevent kidney from stones is to stay well hydrated.
Limit salt and sugar: Foods containing high sodium and sugar increase risk.
Eat a balanced diet: fruits, vegetables, low-flexible foods.
Avoid excessive animal protein: Too much red meat can lead to certain types of stones.
Stay active: Regular movements can help you deal with your weight and reduce risk factors.
Treatment Options:
Small Stones: Often pass naturally with increased water intake and pain relief.
Medications: Doctors may prescribe drugs to help pass or prevent stones.
Large Stones: May require medical procedures like shock wave therapy or surgical removal.
Quick detection Saves Lives: Mostly kidney issues develop normally. Awareness helps people spot warning signs early.
Promote prevention: Clarification of people through fluid intake and healthy habits reduces future kidney problems.
Reducing health costs: Preventing kidney disease is much cheaper than treatment.
Bruch Stigma: Many people avoid discussing urine and kidney health. The conversation opens.
Improve your quality of life: Healthy kidneys mean better health, energy and wells.
Let's spread the word!
If you know someone who treats or has kidney stones, share your story. Even if you're not doing it, you can help us by reminding us of tips, facts, or simply more water.
Now this is the end of my post i hope you really like my entry, at the end I would like to invite my friends @faran-nabeel, @steemitprofess and @munazamalik and @sitaraindaryas to participate in this contest. Now, I am saying goodbye here to everyone and very best wishes.
Best Regards,
Abdul Sameer
