Hello! Kidney stones can travel along the path of urine, from the renal pelvis to the ureters, bladder, and urethra and out. However, the stone can get stuck in the way causing renal colic. At this time, you need to drink a lot of water to help wear down the stones, avoid the stones from getting bigger, do not eat too salty or too sweet. If the stone is >1cm, it is necessary to see a urologist for specific treatment. You can go to a hospital of Vinmec Health System for intensive examination and treatment. Thank you for trusting and sending the question: "Is kidney stone moving from the middle to the lower calyx is the disease progressing?" to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health. Best regards!
