Hello There.
I can understand your concern.
I hope you are not in too much pain.
There are multiple stones and you have not mentioned the accurate location of the stones.
drinking lots of water to dissolve the stone on its own will not be a possibility for a stone of this size.
You will have to consult a urologist in person and get it removed surgically.
Extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy is your best option and its a non invasive procedure also.
Best regards,
Dr. Anil kumar jain.
