Detailed Answer:
Hi,

It depends on the location of stone. But generally such small stone should clear but cannot predict exact time. Yes, ESWL is a method which can be done in one small sitting. But, all the reports, physical examination and patient requirements need to be considered for deciding further plan of management.

Thanks
