A member asked:
I have non obstructive renal calculi between 3 to 4mm. will i know if it blocks the ureter? i get pain around twice a day which last less than a min.

See below: You may not know if the stone blocks the ureter. It would be prudent to consult a urologist to see if it would be feasible to remove the stones endoscopically. In the mean time drink plenty of water daily.
