A member asked:
I have 5.5mm stone in urinary bladder. can it be cured without surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: A stone that size may pass without surgery. If it does, you will definitely feel it pass. Lithotripsy could be tried to break it up but it is simple to remove it with surgery.
