A member asked:
Hi, i have a 1cm kidney stone that's in my ureter. it's on my right side but i've not had any pain at all. how dangerous is this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dangerous: The ureter is blocked by the stone and it is causing back pressure into the kidney. If not relieved, the back pressure will destroy the kidney. You do not have pain because the stone is too big to move. Please see a urologist at your earliest.
