Hi lybrate-user, 3 mm sized renal stones doesn?t require surgery it can be managed through medications, before starting medical management please go for urine microscopy based on that report we can suggest antibiotic if any signs of infection present. Take 5 liters of water daily and cranberry juice to avoid urinary tract infections. Tests required Urine microscopy Fbs/ppbs Serum creatinine Start Tab. TRAM-p twice a day for 5 days. After urine microscopy let me know I will guide you.
