please help

i had a kidney stone a few weeks ago, had surgery, had stent in and the stent was just removed a few days ago. i have been in severe pain ever since, especially in the bladder. i have to urinate constantly (at least every 10 minutes), where i only go a few drops, and then the pain is even more worse. its almost unbearable. flomax, percocets, nothing is working. is there something wrong? what should i do about this?

What is the difference between the rubber stent and the metal? Also, when is each used and why. I am having problems sitting and walking. I had to stay in the hospital 2 days after the lithrotripsy. I do not know if I am going to be able to return to work next week.

Is there something that they can give you in the doctors office before removing the stent to ease the pain?

hi, it could be due to infection in the urinary tract, more likely to be in urinary bladder (Cystitis). Get a urine routine examination and culture done. A course of antibiotic after consultation with your doctor will help. Drink a lot of water.
