Hello Thanks for query. The pain in abdomen after endoscopic removal of stone in ureter with stent in place is mostly due to inflammation of delicate ureteral mucosa as foreign body reaction to stent .
You need to take antibiotic like Cefixime along with anti inflammatory medication Diclofenac twice daily and Tomsulosin once daily ..
Ensure to drink more water This will help to keep urine dilute and help to reduce pain .
Please do not worry this will get resolved after removal of stent. Dr.Patil.
