A member asked:

Im feeling a lot of bladder pressure and urge to urinate, even though i just went. could i not have passed my stone yet? its not pain, just pressure o

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Could be: As the stone passes through the intramural ureter (that portion of the ureter within the bladder wall), the stone will cause frequency, urgency and a feeling of not being able to empty the bladder. Keep straining your urine to make sure you have passed the stone.
