Medical Article
Renal colic is a severe and sudden form of flank pain that originates over the costovertebral angle and extends towards the groin or testicle. It is primarily caused by acute obstruction of the urinary tract, often due to the presence of kidney stones (ureteral calculi). This condition is frequently accompanied by symptoms like nausea and vomiting.
