Hi,
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read your message.
I think I can help you.
Yes you can take cystone.
However, asymptomatic ureter stones don't need treatment.
So if you are asymptomatic, avoid till your jaundice settles.
I have tried to make it as simple as possible. I hope that the information contained in this message will be able to help you find the best solution for your problem. Best of luck. Dr Mittal

Hi
I have read your message.
Asymptomatic means there should be no symptoms.
Like pain in abdomen.
Sometimes the stones are incidentally found on ultrasound for another condition .
Also I should tell you that many ayurveda medicines have effects on liver.
Better to meet a urologist before taking any medicines.
Best of luck.
