Kidney stones may get created when an imbalance of minerals, salts, water and other materials found in urine occurs. Things that cause the imbalance include:
- Insufficient drinking of water
- Different types of medical conditions
A person can form kidney stones due to his/her family history as stones frequently occur within the family over several generations.
In rare cases, kidney stones are formed due to excessive production of a hormone by the parathyroid glands.
