Hello, according to your report you have a non obstructing kidney stone in left kidney. That means the stone is in such a position that ismts not causing any obstruction to the outflow of the urine and hence is not a reason to be worried about. But in future if you get left flank side pain radiating towards back you should show to a doctor as it means the stone might have been obstructing the flow. So for now dont worry, just have lots of fluids and water which might just flush out the stone from its place. And if you het pain in left side show to doctor. I hope i have helped your question. Thank you
