A member asked:
I had a ureteral stent placed 4 days ago.. is it okay to wear a tampon?

"Ureteral stents" are usually placed secondary to ureteral stones or abdominal surgical injury. Wearing a tampon will not complicate this clinical situation, but followup with your urologist for continuing monitoring.
