Hi, if it is giving you trouble; one might think of getting it passed through otherwise it will come down on its own later some time. Other way out is lithotripsy. For more information visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithotripsy

For the time being just have plenty of fluids, beer and antibiotic like ciprofloxacin along with pain killers like diclofenac will be sufficient.
