Urologist,  's  Response
Hi,
It looks like he has a small kidney stone on right which should comfortably pass off if he improves fluid intake.
He might be on the process of passing another similar stone on the left side. I suggest he gets an X-ray KUB, and if required a CT scan of KUB if there looks to be a bigger problem.
