Hello, thanks for your query Stent dysuria is pain related to placement of stent following treatment for stone disease. You may use anticholinergic medication in consultation with your treating urologist to feel a lot better. A lot of fluids orally, alkalinization of urine and not straining to pass urine are other ways to reduce the pain. Lithotripsy for stone disease is not always a risk-free procedure especially on repeated basis, and you are well advised to take steps to prevent recurrence I hope I have answered your query will be pleased to answer any follow-up queries that you may havethanksDr
