Found a 5.7 mm stone in my right distal ureter near the UV junction on a CT scan. I've passed stones before but no pain right now. Is this one small enough to pass on its own or will I need surgery?
A 5.7mm kidney stone in the distal ureter, close to the ureterovesical junction (UVJ), has a chance of passing on its own but may require medical intervention.
