It can cause accumulation of water in the kidneys and kidney failure. It's important that you get it checked out by a doctor.
Depending on the size you will pass them or need them treated by a urologist so they can be passed.
A percentage of the time, nothing, a percentage of the time, bad. See a urologist.
