  6. I like this article about kidney stones, Kidney stones are made of salts and minerals that crystallize into small stones that vary in size, as they can be the size of sand grains, or as large as the size of a golf ball. The stones may remain inside the kidneys or may move outside the body through the urinary system. thanks for sharing this article and this info
