No, a kidney stone of 6 mm size or any size rarely dissolves on its own. Typically, medications are prescribed to dissolve the stone so that it can pass through the urinary tract without causing any pain.

Thus, the treatment options are medications, shockwave lithotripsy, ureteroscopy, retrograde intrarenal surgery, and percutaneous nephrolithotomy. The urologist chooses the most suitable treatment according to the severity of the condition.
