Cholelithiasis
Respectful Sir/Madam,
My wife has undergone an Ultrasound Whole Abdomen and noted that the Gall Bladder is having 2-3mm stone. Does this mean definitely to remove the Gall Bladder completely through surgery? Are there any oral medications available for removal of the stones rather than surgery? She has recently undergone C-section due to delivery and now this been happened. No other issues in her and kindly tell that can these stones be dispersed through oral medications without surgery. Pls do intimate and do the needful.
Thanking you in anticipation,
