A member asked:
I have a stent in my ureter and was curious if i could still go swimming.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Typically patients with stents are told they can resume normal activities such as bathing etc. Rigorous activities such as jogging, weights, swimming the general recommendation is to avoid until the stent is removed. Hop this helps.
