Is it normal to not feel like urinating after drinking 5 liters of water when you have a kidney stone?

It is not normal to not have the urge to urinate after drinking 5 liters of water when you have a kidney stone. The pain from the stone can cause muscle contractions in the bladder and urinary tract, which may make it more difficult to urinate but it should still be possible. If someone is unable to urinate at all, it is important to see a doctor immediately.
