A member asked:
Should i be able to pass a6.3 stone on my own and is there anything besides water that will help flush it out?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Be seen: I presume you mean a 6.3mm stone. That is relatively large for the average ureter. See your doctor, and a urologist, for an opinion. Water is fine for flushing yourself out, and it may pass, but if not, you will need surgery.
