A doctor has provided 1 answer
More information: is needed such as if you are symptomatic ?, where the stones are located ? , how did they find out ? To find out what is causing the stones and taking preventive measures to prevent formation of the new stones is important. In the mean time hydrate yourself well so you can flush out the stones via urine if any left inside.
