Can a 7mm kidney stone pass on its own?

Patient's question:

The kidney stone has entered the urethra and can be expelled on its own with medication.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, your check results show that this stone is relatively large and considered quite serious. Clinically, if the diameter of a stone exceeds 10mm, it generally cannot be passed on its own through medication. In your case, with a 7mm stone, the likelihood of passing it through medication is also relatively low. For your current condition, you can try taking "Hupu Paishi Granules" and drink plenty of water, exercise more. If it doesn't pass, you should promptly go to the hospital for laser lithotripsy treatment. First, the stone should be crushed, and then it can be passed out.
