Child Develops Bladder Stone from Low Water Intake: Doctor’s Warning
A paediatric case in Kebbi drew attention to the risks of chronic dehydration. An 11-year-old boy was brought to the children’s clinic after his parents noticed he couldn’t hold his urine, despite having no other complaints. An ultrasound scan revealed a bladder stone linked to inadequate fluid intake. He was referred to a urologist and the stone was successfully removed during surgery. This case highlights how regular water consumption helps perfuse the kidneys, prevent urinary tract infections and stop stones forming. Make drinking water a habit to protect your urinary health.
