Hello,

I share your concern. 7 mm stone is very small which can expel out with hydrotherapy. I would advise you to take lots of fluids 5-7 liters a day, Since you are taking urimax which will also help in maintaining good urine flow.In my opinion surgical procedure is not required in your case as renal calculus is toll small and may expel out with good urine output. Maintain good hygiene to avoid Genitourinary tract infection.

Hope I could answer your question. Please feel free to ask for follow up question I will be happy to help you.

Best wishes,
Dr. BR Hudda
