Renal colic attack

Renal colic is one of the complications of the presence of stones in the kidneys. Very painful, they systematically require medical treatment to relieve them and, in the long term, to prevent relapses which are quite frequent.


What is renal colic?



Renal colic is due to the presence of stones in the kidneys. When in excessive concentration in the urine, certain substances eliminated form crystals in the kidneys or in the bladder. These can aggregate and form small solid particles, urinary stones or kidney stones, which block the channels through which urine passes or collects in the bladder. This disease, also called urolithiasis, affects on average 10% of men and 5% of women in USA.

Urolithiasis is a recurrent disease: in half of the people who have experienced an attack of renal colic, a second attack is observed in the following five years. This tendency to relapse justifies the implementation of measures to prevent them.


What are the different types of urolithiasis?


    The nature of the substances that make up urinary stones is varied. We distinguish :
    * urate stones (uric acid, a product of protein breakdown by the body) which accounts for 10% of cases of urolithiasis;
    *oxalocalcic stones (70% of cases);
    *phosphocalcic stones (10 to 20% of cases);
    *cystine stones (1 to 2% of cases in adults, 10% of cases in children), due to a genetic abnormality;
    *phospho-ammoniaco-magnesian stones (called struvite) (less than 2% of cases, mainly in women.

What are the symptoms of renal colic?


When tiny, kidney stones can be eliminated naturally and sometimes result in blood in the urine. Renal colic causes very intense, even unbearable pain, spreading from the middle of the back to the groin, sometimes with nausea and vomiting. If not managed medically, kidney stones can cause kidney infection, possibly kidney failure or sepsis.
