Causes

• Prostate gland enlargement – This is one of the main causes for developing bladder stone in men. It can obstruct the passing of urine preventing it from emptying the bladder. Thus, results in formation of stones
• Swelling in the bladder

How to Prevent It

• Drink at least 8-10 glasses of fluids in a day
• Avoid high consumption of meat, eggs, animal fat diet

Consult the best nephrologist immediately if you face any inconvenience to avoid aggravating the problem.
