Sign 10. Unexplained Weight Loss
Although not a direct symptom of kidney stones, unexplained weight loss can occur in some cases. This weight loss can be attributed to factors such as a decreased appetite due to pain and discomfort or an increased need to urinate leading to fluid loss. Additionally, nausea and vomiting can also contribute to a decreased calorie intake and subsequent weight loss.
If you experience unexplained weight loss along with other kidney stone symptoms, it’s essential to consult a healthcare professional to determine the cause and ensure proper treatment.(8)
