Suggest Remedy To Get Out Small Kidney Stome

I was in the emergency room 2 days ago in great pain - lower right back, plus difficulty urinating and pressure in bladder area, plus waves of nausea. They diagnosed a small kidney stone through a CT scan. They have me a strainer to catch it, and said its ejection is imminent. The problem is, it's been over two days, and it hasn't come out. The pain is completely gone. All I see the the strainer are what look like tiny soft black pieces of fabric. Nothing solid. What should I do at this stage?

Urologist,  's  Response
Hello and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist,i can understand your concern.
You should've written the size of the stone and your age.
Most probably,you would've passed the stone by now.
You continue to drink about 12 or more glasses fluids daily.
You get pain only if stone moves and nausea,when stone blocks kidney.
Now you don't have either of these symptoms. So that's a good sign.
Wish you well.
