More than 75% of people have calcium kidney stones, while cystine is very uncommon and rare. Only about 5% of people will ever experience having kidney stones. Just like the name, kidney stones actually form like a stone. Some stones can be the size of grains of sand or as large as a golf ball; sometimes even bigger. When the stones are small it can pass through your urine when you go to the bathroom; sometimes you may not even notice. Larger stones may be difficult to pass. They get lodge in the ureter tubes, which will require treatment or surgery.

Medical conditions such as serve intestine or urinary tract infections, bowel disease are causes as well. Lastly kidney stones are caused by genetics.
