No: Itching would be an unusual symptom of kidney stones (nephrolithiasis). Certain kidney conditions can lead to itching (pruritis), but not kidney stones.

Question 2

Stent: Sounds like you have a double j stent and the tail in the bladder is irritating you. Suggest call the urologist and they can take a look with a cystosocope. Stent don't often irritate like you are feeling. Your temp is normal.

Question 3

i have a lit of itching and pain in my vagina i have two kidney stones in my right kidney is that a symptom of the kidney stone it also hurts urinate.?

Accepted Answer

More like infection: Kidney stones usually cause pain or no symptoms at all.  Infection in the urethra (tube coming from bladder to outside) or vagina cause this type of discomfort.  Get a clinic to check you so you don't have to suffer.  Also use protection for sex because some of these infections could be contagious.

Question 4

is it normal to get kidney stone like pain after a cystoscopey to clean out the urethra of debris?

Accepted Answer

Cystoscopy. : If a stone was broken up, you may be passing some fragments of the stone, and as such you may feel some symptoms. But if this occurs for more than 2-3 days after the cystoscopy, or if your pain is worsening, or if you’re having fevers, you should see the Urologist.

Question 5

i have a 5mm kidney stone. i'd like to know when, during elimination, will it be the most painful? ureteter, bladder or urethra? i'm a male.

Accepted Answer

Ureter: More than likely the worse pain is when the stone is passing down the ureter and into bladder.   You may get some pain or discomfort urinating the stone out.

Question 6

can a kidney stone fragment get stuck in urethra? i had a lefteswl on june 8th & right on june 27th. this is a total of 10 eswl's for me. i feel like

Accepted Answer

Yep!: Happens frequently. You may even feel it. Check with your urologist if you can’t void.  I have had to cystoscope patients and remove the stone or fragment

Question 7

i have a kidney stone stuck at the very tip of my urethra about a quarter inch from the head it's been stuck there now for three days cannot pass it t?

Accepted Answer

See a urologist: You need to be evaluated.  If you can not pass it, it can lead to not passing urine, which can lead to hydronephrosis.   Not to mention pain and infection.  In the mean time, drink plenty of water and if you aren't able to urinate at all, or pain is too severe, go to ER.

Question 8

is it possible to feel a kidney stone (large enough to be stuck in the ureters) exit the urethra in females?

Accepted Answer

Ureteric stone: Small renal stone may or may not be felt passing through female urethra since it is short and straight. Also depends on orientation and shape of stone. Best way to catch stone is to strain urine.

Question 9

kidney stone stuck in urethra 3 days.small 3-4mm.  i've had 5-6mm stones exit no problem.  solution? when do i need to see urologist?

Accepted Answer

Should pass: Unusual for 3mm stone not to pass. Interesting you know diameter of stone without seeing a urologist; must have had a ct scan. Hope you are straining your urine. See urologist if you are in pain from stone or obstruction. Can safely wait 2 - 4 weeksif you are neither in pain nor have urinary obstruction.Recurrent kidney stones could be metabolic.Have u had 24 hr urine tested for calcium excretion?

Question 10

can you have sex with a kidney stone stuck in urethra?

Accepted Answer

If you can: If the stone is in the urethra the ejaculate might help lubricate things and get the stone to move. I assume that there is not complete obstruction? If there were i'm sure you wouldn't be thinking about having sex!
