Symptoms of Bladder stones
A bladder stone may go unnoticed until it irritates the soft lining of the bladder wall. You may then see blood in the urine, particularly towards the end of urination.
Bladder stones may also cause:
- pain when passing urine,
- a frequent and sometimes urgent need to empty the bladder, and
- blood in the urine.
If a stone gets stuck at the entrance to the urethra, it may block the emptying of the bladder, or the jet of urine may suddenly stop halfway through.
