Hello,
4mm stone is small and will pass through the urine. Surgical intervention is not required.
As of now continue tamsulosin and drink plenty of water. A followup scan is required to check whether the stone passed or not. If pain is severe you can take drugs like tramadol also for pain.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
