The kidney is one of the most common places wherein renal calculi formation is reported. The calculi have the tendency to go down the urinary tract without getting dislodged or causing problems in the urinary tract. When it reaches the kidney, that is the time when it may get dislodged. The other choices available may also be afflicted with the renal calculi but it is not very common.

There are certain tests that will determine this but from the various symptoms that are mentioned above, it is evident that the kidney is affected. It is important for the patient to get urgent care in order to not worsen the symptoms and the condition in general.

Kidney

The most common site of renal calculi formation is the kidney. Calculi may travel down the urinary tract with or without causing damage and may lodge anywhere along the tract or may stay within the kidney. The ureter, bladder, and urethra are less common sites of renal calculi formation.
