Answer to Question 1

False

Answer to Question 2

1) Renal colic: a stone passing through the ureter can produce severe, stabbing pain, called renal colic. Generally, the pain begins in the back and intensifies as the stone travels toward the bladder. The pain can be severe enough to cause nausea and vomiting and sometimes requires medication. Blood may appear in the urine (hematuria) as a result of damage to the kidney or ureter lining.
2) Urinary tract complications: depending on the location of the stone, symptoms may include urination urgency, frequent urination, or inability to urinate. Stones that are unable to pass through the ureter can cause a urinary tract obstruction and possibly lead to infection or acute kidney injury.
