In brief: Kidney stones
Keep drinking 3-4 liters per day.
You may require a ureter relaxant from your practitioner.

In brief: Depends on size
and whether or not it is causing obstruction or infection.
4 mm stone should pass on its own. Does not sound like obstruction or infection, but if you are still having pain, you should consult a urologist for removal.
