bladder stone

Crystallized urinary deposit

A bladder stone is a hard mass of minerals that forms in the urinary bladder, causing pain, difficulty urinating, and bloody urine.

Also called a vesical calculus.

Bladder stones develop when urine becomes concentrated, allowing minerals to crystallize—often due to incomplete bladder emptying or chronic infection.
