Can sand-like kidney stones cause hypertension?

Sand-like kidney stones themselves generally do not cause hypertension, but they can cause hypertension if they are not treated in time to cause renal function damage. The specific conditions are as follows:

Hypertension refers to the clinic blood pressure measured 3 times on the same day higher than the normal value, that is, systolic blood pressure greater than or equal to 140mmHg and (or) diastolic blood pressure greater than or equal to 90mmHg. High blood pressure is mainly due to glomerulonephritis, pheochromocytoma and other reasons, sand-like kidney stones and will not directly lead to hypertension, but if the patient fails to timely treatment, kidney function damage, due to renal function decreased, glomerular filtration rate decreased, causing water sodium retention, which will cause hypertension.

Sand-like kidney stones patients should drink more water, conducive to stone discharge. Most patients after active treatment prognosis is better, and can be adjusted by diet, living habits and so on to reduce the recurrence rate.
