I've noticed that whenever I drink water, I end up needing to use the toilet in just about 5 minutes. Because of this, I try not to drink too much water, especially at night. It's kind of worrying me, and I'm not sure what I should do about it. Any ideas?

My report says the ureters are obscured and there's a 5 mm kidney stone. Can a stone this size pass without surgery? What noninvasive tests like CT or MRI should I do to check for obstruction and locate the stone?

A 5mm kidney stone has a good chance of passing on its own, but a CT scan or MRI can help determine if the stone is obstructing the ureter and if further intervention is needed. CT scans are the preferred method for assessing kidney stones, as they are highly sensitive and can provide detailed images of the urinary tract.
