It is not possible to predict given your information. Where is it. What type of stone is it. Are you having blood in urine and pain? Discuss with your local Dr.

It is not feasible to provide a time table for the movement of the stone. Drink enough water daily so that your urine is mostly colorless to facilitate the passage of the stone and prevent formation of additional stones. Wish you good health!
