Nephrology consult.: Nephrology consult should be done. If the composition of the gravel is known, their cause can be addressed. Otherwise, watchful waiting and treating acute episodes is an option.

Puma,: Kidney stones that size will come out from time to time, a renal colic, a little painful. Drink plenty of water so they do not grow and see a urologist to make sure you do not have too much uric acid or calcium in the urine.
