This comprehensive review discusses the global prevalence of urolithiasis, known as kidney stone disease (KSD), emphasizing its increasing incidence across various regions. The genesis of renal calculi involves complex processes, including crystal aggregation and nucleation. Symptomatic stones often manifest as unilateral flank discomfort (renal colic), necessitating imaging for diagnosis, with computed tomography being the preferred modality. Surgical interventions like lithotripsy are common but show limited efficacy in preventing recurrence. The management of KSD involves dietary modifications, emphasizing fluid intake, sodium restriction, and tailored adjustments based on stone composition. Though their efficacy varies, medications, including thiazide diuretics and allopurinol, aim to prevent stone recurrence. The paper also explores emerging therapies involving medicinal herbs and bioactive compounds. Stone preventive strategies encompass lifestyle changes, dietary management, and medical interventions. The review concludes by underscoring the significance of preventive measures in reducing the physical, psychological, and financial burdens associated with KSD.
