DJ stenting is a minor procedure in which a small tube called a stent is placed in the urinary passage from the kidney to the bladder. This helps urine flow smoothly when there is blockage due to stones, swelling, or narrowing. The procedure is usually done under anesthesia and takes only a short time. Patients can often go home in few days. The stent prevents pain and kidney problems while the underlying issue heals or is treated. Mild burning, urgency, or blood in urine may occur but usually settles in a few days. The main advantage is quick relief from obstruction without major surgery. Drinking plenty of water helps prevent irritation. Follow-up is important for timely stent removal. Most patients feel comfortable within a few days.
