It really would be best to see a doctor to determine what size stone you have, as treatment other than treatment at home may be necessary. If the stone is large, it may not be able to pass through your system, which could be a medical emergency. For most kidney stones, your doctor would suggest drinking 8-10 glasses of water a day to help flush them out. You may also need to take pain medication. For only 1 or 2 out of 10 people, a stone will be too large to pass on it's own. A stone will usually take about 1-3 weeks to pass, and two-thirds of stones that pass on their own pass within 4 weeks of the symptoms appearing. Other than pain medication and drinking plenty of fluids, further treatment is done only if your pain is too severe, the stones are blocking the urinary tract, or if you also have an infection. These methods would include extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, using a scope, or regular surgery. You can read more here
