It certainly wouldn't be a small one.
10 mm
Are you serious ?????????? Its 13mm, you said it in the question.
The size of a small ball bearing.
9 millimeters
A 3mm stone is 3mm large. Isn't that like asking what color is a blue bird?well maybe they arent sure what the mm means...it means millimeter.there are 25 millimeters in a inch, so a 3 mm stone is roughly 1/8th of a inch.fairly small. i have had some as large as 10mm .
it might be a cyst or a mass
3 mm is considered diminutive, ie small. Something that is 1 cm (ie 10 mm) or more is large.
Depends on the exact location of the stone. I had a large stone growing, and attached about midway down in my left ureter. The urologists at the VA Hospital in Houston put me through various operations attempting to remove the stone. They went in through my penis and tried to "Jab" it loose and was unsuccessful, then they tried to use high power ultrasound to break it up and was unsuccessful, then they went in through my back with open surgery and through my kidney and into the ureter and manually extracted the stone. I don't know the exact method that would be best for you, but a lot if pain was involved. Local anesthetics were used because I had to be awake while the surgery was being done. This was a very large calcium stone.
the edge of a dime is about 1 mm
it is about the size of a kidney bean , so a 2 mm kidney stone is rather large to us but not the a dr. they will not remove them untill they are about 6 mm in size and or obstructing your urine.
