Ureter stones (also called ureteral stones) can affect anyone, including children. However, the greatest risk is usually suffered by men over 50, specifically if they have an enlarged prostate.

 

Ureter stones usually occur when the bladder cannot pass urine. In the end, the minerals in the urine will settle and crystallize to become stones in the bladder. There are several things that can trigger the formation of ureter stones, including the following.

  1. Inflammation due to urinary infection
  2. Enlarged prostate
  3. Past history of kidney stones
  4. Use of a catheter
  5. Dropped bladder (cystocele)
  6. As well as several diseases that affect the nerves of the bladder (diabetes, stroke, and spinal cord injuries)

In general, this disease will produce several symptoms, including pain when urinating, blood in the urine, darker urine, difficulty passing urine, frequent urge to urinate, not smoot urination, feeling pain in the lower abdomen, or the penis hurts.

Patients with ureter stones are advised to consume lots of water to help the recovery process. In addition, if the stone is large enough, it is necessary to perform surgery or destroying the stones in the bladder with a cystolitholapaxy procedure.
