3. Foul-Smelling Urine
Healthy urine has a mild odor that isn’t offending to the senses. In people with kidney stones, this odor becomes stronger, even turning foul at times. This is due to the slowing down of urine flow due to the blockage of the urinary tract caused by the presence of kidney stones. When this happens, urine becomes more concentrated than normal, allowing its contents, such as ammonia, to accumulate, making the pee smell musky and foul.
