Can bladder infections be caused by kidney stones?
That is where the stones are "supposed to go", but on the way they lodge in the kidneys or more commonly the ureter, which leads from the kidneys. Breaking up or releasing the stone allows it to travel to the bladder, where it can be excreted from the body through the urethra (a much larger structure and not likely to be blocked).
The only other way for kidney stones to leave the body is through surgical removal, which is extremely rare.

Herein lies a potential problem in the availability of necessary equipment for the health care provider.
