If you fail to keep yourself adequately hydrated during the heat wave
this summer, there are more chances for stones to surface in kidneys and
ureter, warn experts.
This holds especially true for those who work outdoors in the extreme
heat but commit the mistake of not drinking enough water, which helps
calcium and other minerals in the urine to condense and turn into small
stones. The warning signs for such a condition are burning sensation
while passing urine, severe pains on either side of the stomach,
vomiting and blood in urine.
"Though it takes six months to one year for kidney stones to grow to a
size of 5 mm to 7 mm, dehydration induced by the heat wave can hasten
the process as acidic substances in urine become more concentrated to
form into crystals and finally into stones," said Dr N Mallikarjun Reddy
, consultant laproscopic urologist, Global Hospitals.He blamed
dehydration for a 10-15% rise in kidney stone cases every summer.
The problem is also said to get aggravated if instead of drinking
enough water, one consumes carbonated drinks and eats a lot of
non-vegetarian food. Not just stones, inadequate hydration is also known
to cause kidney injury and affect blood supply to the kidneys.

ReplyDeleteDehydration can be done due to loss of water in the summer because in summer a normal body of the human being needs more water than normal routine. so, we need to keep these aspects in mind to keep our self away from the dehydration.
