I've been having abdomen pain for the past 2 days and the ultrasound showed a 6mm calculus in the VUJ. Should I consider surgery or are there other treatment options like medicines that could help?

My right ureter is a bit dilated in the middle and there's a 7mm stone in the lowest part. Do I really need surgery for this or can it pass with just medicines? I'm a bit worried about what to do next.

A 7mm kidney stone in the lower ureter, especially with associated dilation, likely won't pass on its own and surgery may be needed. While medications can help with pain and potentially aid passage, they are not a definitive solution for a 7mm stone.
