You can do that. It might help. Flomax can help too, it relaxes the muscles and sometimes makes it easier to pass the stone. I know this can be torture so you want it out asap. Drink allot of fluids too, wash it out of there.
I have 3-4 stones per year, no matter what me and the doc to as preventatives... mine are oxylate stones... look like brown sugar. The last was 9.5mm and surgery was required... I
have scar tissue in both ureters and larger stones will catch just at the last bend into the bladder..flomax, as kaismama said, does help a lot... as a matter of fact, i had one release from the kidney today but it has been tolrable w percocet so far... good luck w your male 'labor pains'
