The kidneys, bladder, urethra and ureter form the urinary system which is responsible for eliminating toxins and wastes from the body. Ayurveda describes 13 types of Mutraghata (urinary problems). Disorders can be as simple as a burning sensation while passing urine, an infection, or advanced issues such as kidney stones, inflammation of the kidneys or bladder cancer. Urinary irregularities may also be symptoms of underlying metabolic disorders. Ayurveda treats the root-cause of the urinary problem with herbal medicines, specialized diets and lifestyle plans.
