Beer does not melt any stones. This is a common misconception. For stones have plenty of water generally. Stones smaller than 6mm can pass spontaneously usually, larger stones may obstruct and may require some procedures. Medicines are available which help in passing small stones but please get ultrasound kub, for confirmation of diagnosis.
