Most urinary tract calculi are formed in the upper urinary tract while urethral calculi are uncommon. In young men, lower urinary tract symptoms are often due to infections and are treated with antibiotics, but unusual causes may be overlooked. We present a case of an impacted urethral calculus in an otherwise healthy young male who presented with several months of lower urinary tract symptoms.
