9. Kidney Stones
Kidney stones vary in size and can cause plenty of pain, but they’re rarely life-threatening. Small kidney stones pass naturally and large stones tend to require some kind of surgery.
Kidney stones don’t just cause localized pain, it tends to radiate to other areas such as the lower right abdominal region and in men, the testicles. Kidney stones can form in the ureter, kidney or bladder. Many people report extreme pain while urinating.3‘Kidney Stones.’ Mayo Clinic, Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research, 5 May 2020, www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/kidney-stones/symptoms-causes/syc-20355755.
