Abstract

Research on kidney stones demonstrates that this painful condition has been part of human physiology since the time of the Egyptians (Cause and..., 1998). Although kidney stones are one of the most painful disorders that can be experienced by the patient, they are also one of the most common. Researchers note that 10 percent of the American population will at one time in their lives experience kidney stones (Cause and..., 1998). While men are more prone to the condition than women, in most cases, kidney stones pass without the need for intervention from the physician. As such, while kidney stones are painful they are in most cases benign.Examining the basic definition of kidney stones that has been offered in the current research, scholars have noted that, "A kidney stone develops from crystals that separate from urine and build up on the inner surfaces of the kidney. Normally, urine contains chemicals that prevent or inhibit the crystals from forming.
