Is It Possible To Dissolve 7mm Kidney Stones Without Operation?

I am a 27 year old SWE from Hyderabad. Recently I had pain in right side of tummy, and went to a doctor. She asked for a Ultrasound test. It showed "7mm Right VUJ calculus with mild hydroureteronephrosis".

I want to know if it is possible to dissolve this stone without any operation.

Hi,
Usually 6-7 mom of stone are expelled out slontenously they don't require any intervention usually to this type of patient we advice to drink plenty of water more than 4-5 ltr per day and some antispasmodics,vuj is narrowest part in tract,if stone is impacted with back pressure it may cause kidney damage(hydronephrosis),
As urologist are expert in this you will have to consult an urologist for an opinion,
Hope this information helps.
