The stone may come out quickly at the end of the ureter, but it may also be impinged.
The stone reaching the end of the ureter indicates that the stone has moved from the kidney through the ureter to a position near the bladder. At this time, if the stone is small and relatively regular in shape, it may continue to move toward the bladder position and follow the urine out of the body. However, if the stone is large in size or irregular in shape, it may stay at the end of the ureter and form an impaction. Not only can it not be effectively discharged, but it can also easily lead to poor urination. In this case, special treatment is needed to remove the stone in time.
