Uric acid stones are a type of kidney stones that are also considered among the most commonly found kidney stones. As the name suggests, these stones are formed due to the presence of excess uric acid in the body.
These stones generally form due to a lack of hydration in the body. Patients who’ve had chemotherapy, weight loss surgery, or have a history of kidney stones, are also at risk of developing these stones. These stones exhibit symptoms similar to all other types of stones, and the patients may experience pain in the flank area, sides, or groin, nausea, vomiting, fever, or blood in the urine.

Before determining the best treatment option for patients, the doctors perform a thorough diagnosis to figure out the complexity of the condition. The treatment is planned based on the diagnosis. A comprehensive diagnostic procedure also helps doctors determine if the patient has an underlying health condition that may cause complications during treatment. Listed below are some commonly performed diagnostic tests before uric acid stone treatment:
Uric acid stones that are too small in size pass through the system on their own or with some home remedies. On the contrary, stones that are large in size require a doctor’s intervention. The doctor will run the diagnostic tests to determine the size of the stone and other factors before suggesting conservative or non-conservative treatment for your condition. Read on to find out the different treatment options for uric acid stones.
If the stones aren’t too large and the condition isn’t complex, the doctor may suggest medication. The medications are generally prescribed to manage the level of uric acid in the blood and urine, dissolve the stones, keep the urine alkaline, etc.
When the stones don’t respond to medication, the doctor may suggest non-surgical or surgical procedures depending on the requirement of the condition. Listed below are the commonly performed procedures for uric acid stones removal:

Recovery after uric acid stones can take from a few days to a few weeks, depending on the type of treatment you have received. Some tips can help you boost your recovery after treatment, including:
-Eat a diet rich in fruits and vegetables and whole grains. You must avoid foods that are high in purine, as it is responsible for the formation of uric acid in the body.
-Increase your fluid intake to 8 to 10 glasses a day. You can increase it further based on your individual needs.
-Don’t start working out immediately after your surgery. Wait for a few days before you resume exercise or any other strenuous activity. It is best to take the doctor’s advice in this regard.
-If you’ve been asked to discontinue some medicine, do not resume it without asking your doctor. Additionally, take the prescribed medicines on time, and do the complete course.
If treatment for uric stones is medically necessary, it may be covered under insurance. In India, all the top insurance providers provide coverage for the surgical management of uric acid stones. What’s bound to vary is the amount of coverage offered by these providers. Therefore, you must seek clarity from your insurance provider regarding the amount of coverage they provide and their terms and conditions. At Pristyn Care, we provide complete insurance assistance to patients to help them claim their insurance without hassles.
Stones that are too small in size can pass through the system without causing any significant discomfort to the patient. But, if the stones are too large to pass through the system, they can cause significant discomfort and may also lead to kidney problems in the future. If you have severe symptoms, make sure you seek timely treatment.
While uric acid stones don’t generally cause complications, they can sometimes become severe and lead to complications. If you leave these stones untreated, you may be at a risk of kidney stones and at the risk of developing more stones in the future. Therefore, you must seek treatment at the right time.
