Manhood Pain and Kidney Stones: Symptoms, Causes and Treatment
by John Dugan OwnerMany
men who have had them claim they produce the most intense pain they’ve ever
experienced – and sometimes that translates to serious manhood pain. Yes,
kidney stones may not form in the member, but they definitely can have an
impact on male organ health.
What they are
Also called renal
lithiasis or nephrolithiasis, kidney stones are hard deposits made of minerals
and salts that form inside your kidneys. Urine naturally contains
minerals and salts, which dissolve in the urine. But sometimes the amount of
minerals and salts is too large to dissolve properly. The urine “thickens” up,
and the minerals crystallize, forming what we know as kidney stones.
Kidney stones can
vary greatly in size. Some of them are hardly bigger than a few grains of sand;
others are the size of golf balls. They develop in the kidneys, and since
a kidney is only about as big as a man’s fist, it’s easy to see how one of the
larger stones could create problems.
Smaller kidney
stones often cause few problems; sometimes a man is unaware he has them. Other
times, they may cause some small discomfort, but not enough for a man to really
focus on them.
But the larger
stones can cause severe pain. Once they leave the kidneys, they can become
lodged anywhere along the urinary tract, including the ureter and the bladder.
When this happens, they can cause an intense pain in the back or the side. When
passing through the urethra, they can create severe pain in the member. In some
cases, they may block the whole flow of urine, causing it to back up, which can
create an additional painful situation.
Why do they
happen?
There are between
1,000,000 and 2,000,000 reported cases of kidney stones annually in the U.S.,
with men typically accounting for about 4/5 of the cases. Some 10-20% of these
kidney stone attacks result in hospital stays.
But why does mineral
content become so concentrated in urine that it forms the stones in the first
place? Generally, it has to do with one or more factors, such as too much
calcium, too much uric acid, or a urinary tract infection.
Some people are at a
greater risk of developing kidney stones than others, such as those:
- With a genetic
predisposition for kidney stones;
- Who experience
dehydration, especially over a long term;
- Whose dietary
calcium intake is too high;
- Whose uric acids
levels are too high;
- Who are not
physically active enough and/or are obese;
- Whose diets are
too high in salt, sugar and/or protein.
Treatment
Sometimes stones
pass unobtrusively. With small stones, drinking plenty of water and taking pain
relievers such as ibuprofen – and being patient - can sometimes be all the
treatment that is needed.
At other times, a
doctor may prescribe tamsulosin or another medication to help open up the
ureter so the stone can pass. With more difficult situations, ultrasound
therapy may be utilized to break the larger stone into smaller ones. Sometimes
surgery becomes necessary, especially if the stone is lodged in the kidney and
cannot get out.
Kidney stones may
cause severe manhood pain, but most sore male organ problems are due to less
complicated reasons. Using a first class male organ health creme (health
professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe
for skin) can help alleviate everyday male organ soreness. Keeping the
male organ healthy by using a crème that includes a wide range of vitamins (A,
B5, C, D and E) helps it withstand common causes of manhood pain. It also helps
if the crème contains alpha lipoic acid, a potent antioxidant. This ingredient
discourages free radicals, which when unchecked can create oxidative stress
that damages and ages sensitive male organ cells and skin.
