Stone

At MES Foundation, we work to build healthier communities through medical awareness and education. One of the common but serious health issues we focus on is stone disease, commonly known as kidney stones or gallbladder stones.

Stone disease occurs when small, hard mineral deposits form in the kidneys, gallbladder, or urinary tract. These stones can block the flow of urine and cause severe pain and complications.

Common symptoms include:

• Intense pain in the back or lower abdomen Burning sensation while urinating Blood in urine Nausea and vomiting
• If not treated on time, stones can damage the kidneys and other organs.
• At MES Foundation, we educate people on: Preventing stones through proper hydration and a healthy diet Avoiding excessive salt, oily, and junk food
• The importance of early diagnosis and regular check-ups Treatment options like medication, lifestyle changes, or surgical removal if necessary
• We focus on reaching rural and underprivileged populations, where lack of awareness often leads to serious health risks.
