Here are some ...: Most patients tolerate the clinical conditions after ureteral stent insertion after realizing, understanding, and accepting the reality of stent placement. If necessary, pain medications may help and ease stent-related discomforts. But, such expected, tolerable discomforts are still much better open surgery, which is extremely rarely needed. So, ask & work closely with Urologist timely. .
