Hello gentleman, Stones in both kidneys is a result of medical problem and.needs thorough evaluation and close follow up to prevent recurrence and associated kidney damage. ESWL is done to bigger stones to break them into passable fragments. Your stone size is already in passable range hence not required for you. See a urologist and get yourself evaluated completely.
