You need enough hydration keeping the urine alkaline by taking systemic alkalizer Dihydrogen sodium citrate is the best alkalise. It might be flushed out of its own with this treatment. In India we recommend tab. Cystone two tab. Three times a day with adequate water intake. If this is not flushed out visit a urologist to get it removed cystoscopically before it causes hydronephrosis and damage to the kidney.
