Kidney stones can be of different types. They are,
- Calcium stones
Calcium stones are the most common type of stone formed from calcium combined with oxalate and phosphate.
- Uric acid stones
Uric acid stones are comparatively softer than other stones and arise due to high purine intake drugs or high cell turnover especially found in patients with gout.
- Struvite Stones
Struvite stones are arisen due to chronic urinary tract infections.

Cystine stones contain high sulfur content, so Cystine stones are very difficult to find out through X-rays. The stones look like crystals and are very rare.
Calcium stone, Cystine stone, Struvite stone, and Uric acid stones are different forms of Kidney stones.
