Recommended for gallstone surgery
My father was getting mild pain in the stomach region( no specific area, all around). Also his stomach had bloated up. He is a copd patient and this problem occurred at night, so we moved him for emergency to hospital. Their after ultrasound, gallstone was detected. We were advised surgery, we further did endoscopy and fiund presence of piroli bacteria. Doctor advised for treating bacteria via HP Kit. I now suspect that the pain and bloating was because of this bacteria. Please advice your opinion and also say if surgery is important after detecting gall stones.
