If urine backs up, or is allowed to stand still, a kidney infection can develop. About every how many seconds, small amounts of urine are emptied into the bladder from the ureters.
About every 10 to 15 seconds
These narrow tubes carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. Muscles in the ureter walls keep tightening and relaxing. This forces urine downward, away from the kidneys.
URETERS
This triangle-shaped, hollow organ is located in the lower belly. It is held in place by ligaments that are attached to other organs and the pelvic bones.
