I did a ultrasonography and it reports that I have a stone of size 11×6 in my ureter.Is it curable by medicine or I have to make a operation?

11 mm stone in the ureter may usually cause obstruction,infection and may potentially damage the affected side of kidney.it require full clinical evaluation and a functional study like IVP or CT Urography to assess the functional status . Good minimally invasive procedures are available
