Yes....!!! We can try few medicines to expulse stone of its own..!! As the stone is less than 1 cm, there is a chance that it may come out of its own..!! But this medicines should be tried only upto 10-14 days from the start of symptoms...!! If it doesnt come out within this period then surgery should be considered.!!
