No.. Ayurveda and homeopathy will not help in any way. 8mm is a little difficult to pass through by itself. I guess it is in the ureter, as far it's there it will cause block to urine passage and cause pain and infection. So if medicines are not effective better to get it operated. These days it's also through endoscopy techniques. Only a matter of one day.
