A member asked:

How long should i be on bed rezt after kidney stone surgery with a stent inserted? im a female and i have to go up and down stairs is that safe?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: If you feel fine and discomfort is tolerable, yes, you can move around and use stairs. If you have fever and uncontrollable pain, vomiting or dizziness you should contact your urologist immediately. In any case your doctor is the best guide, not internet.
