You cannot.
Go see a GI specialist.
You may not be able to flush out gallstones. A medication called ursodeoxycholic acid may dissolve the stones if they are tiny and are not calcified, and are so-called cholesterol stones. So-called pigment stones and brown pigment stones cannot be dissolved or flushed out. If you have no symptoms, you may never require treatment.
They cannot be flushed out. They might shrink over time with weight loss and low fat diet
