Hello and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, let me assure you that, i fully understand your concern.
Even large stones can be treated with lithotripsy sessions.
But, before i can advise you further, i would like to see your sisters' scan report, with her urine and blood reports, including ,kidney function test, like urea and creatinine, and present medication being taken.
She should drink 12-15 glasses liquids daily.
You're welcome to send the reports in my name here.
