Kidney stone

2017-10-31 12:03:02
I got a severe low abdominal pain one week back with a piercing pain at the urinary opening. A KUB sonography showed left renal mild fullness of pelvicalyceal system due to 3.8mm VUJ calculus. The doctor said that the stone is in the ureter and should reach bladder soon and gave me Tamsulosin 0.4 mg for 10 days. The throbbing pain is still there most of the time, though no other problem or pain. Will I need any surgery or should I let it pass naturally?
