Don’t Ignore Kidney Stones – It Can Cost a Kidney

Many patients think kidney stones are “just pain.”
But when neglected, a stone can block urine flow and cause repeated infections.

Over time, chronic obstruction + persistent infection can lead to a severe condition called Xanthogranulomatous Pyelonephritis (XGP) — a destructive infection where the kidney tissue is gradually damaged and replaced by inflammatory tissue.

In advanced cases, the kidney becomes completely damaged and the only life-saving treatment may be Nephrectomy (removal of the kidney).
