Kidney stones are one of the most common urological problems affecting residents of Bengaluru’s busy tech corridors, and Marathahalli is no exception. Long working hours, limited water intake during the day, and sedentary desk-based routines all contribute to a higher risk of stone formation among working professionals in the area. If you are looking for effective kidney stone treatment in Marathahalli, Dr. Anand Arumugam offers advanced, minimally invasive stone treatment options at Manipal Hospital, Varthur Road, conveniently accessible from Marathahalli via the Outer Ring Road.
Marathahalli and the surrounding ORR belt are home to a large working population, many of whom spend long hours at desks with limited opportunities to stay hydrated throughout the day. Reduced water intake concentrates minerals and salts in the urine, making it easier for crystals to form and gradually build into stones. Diets high in processed food, excessive salt, and irregular meal timings — all common realities of a busy corporate lifestyle — can further increase this risk. Recognizing these lifestyle-linked risk factors is often the first step in both treating existing stones and preventing new ones from forming.
Kidney stones can range from silent and undetected to intensely painful, depending on their size and location. Common symptoms include sharp pain in the back or side that may radiate toward the lower abdomen, blood in the urine, a persistent urge to urinate, burning sensation while urinating, nausea, and in some cases fever if an infection develops alongside the stone. Because this pain can be severe and sudden, many patients from Marathahalli seek urgent evaluation, and Dr. Anand Arumugam’s experience allows for rapid diagnosis using ultrasound or CT imaging to confirm the size and exact location of the stone.
Depending on the size, location, and composition of the stone, Dr. Anand Arumugam recommends the most suitable treatment from the following advanced options, all detailed further on our Renal Stone Treatment page:
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL): A completely non-invasive option that uses focused shock waves to break stones into smaller fragments that can pass naturally, suitable for smaller stones. See our Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy page for more detail.
Ureteroscopy: A minimally invasive procedure that uses a thin scope passed through the natural urinary passage to locate and remove or laser-fragment stones without any external incision. Learn more on our Ureteroscopy page.
Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS): An advanced laser-based technique used for stones located higher up within the kidney, offering precise fragmentation with a quick recovery. Details are on our Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery page.
Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL): Reserved for larger or more complex stones, this technique allows removal through a small puncture in the back, offering an effective solution where other methods aren’t suitable. Read more on our Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy page.
Treatment doesn’t stop at removing the current stone. Dr. Anand Arumugam places strong emphasis on prevention, offering practical, personalized guidance around hydration habits, dietary adjustments, and, where relevant, further metabolic evaluation to identify why stones are forming in the first place — a particularly important step for busy professionals in Marathahalli who are prone to recurrence due to their daily routines.
With over 23 years of urology experience, including over a decade at reputed hospitals in Bangalore, Dr. Anand Arumugam is known for his clear, honest communication and his ability to match treatment intensity to the actual severity of the stone rather than over-treating. Patients from Marathahalli appreciate that the short trip to Manipal Hospital, Varthur Road, gives them access to the complete range of modern stone treatment technology, along with on-site imaging and diagnostic facilities, all under one roof.
