A member asked:
What is a parenchymal calcification and is it harmful?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Kidney pebbles: This is about calcium deposits (hopefully small) in the tissue of the kidney. Your doctor will either refer you or treat you and perhaps find a reason that it developed to prevent a recurrence. Work w/ them to correct it and I hope it goes easily. It's not likely to be terrible, but it requires treatment. Best!
