That can happen: It is possible for a kidney stone not to move very far in a few days. What is more important is to make sure no permanent damage is done to the kidney(s). Please see your doctor - if the symptoms persist or the stone does not pass (please keep straining your urine), you may benefit from a consult with a urologist, a surgeon of the genitourinary system.

Depends on location : Was kidney stone in kidney or ureter? Many stones in parenchyma of kidney or even in collecting system do not readily move.If a stone is in ureter speed of movement is usually faster unless get stuck at junction of ureter and bladder.
