My husband has 2nd time shockwave but the stone is still 0.5mm..what is the best thing to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If it is 0.5mm: and causing no obstruction, it should pass on its own. Just make sure he does not form any more. Avoid dehydration and make sure his Calcium and uric acid levels are normal. Ask his doctor for further advice.
