Gall bladder me approx 7mm ka stone ho gya h to kya operation karana padega ya phir kisi medicine se bhi thik ho sakta h

Hello

Gallbladder stone (cholelithiasis) is a common condition, and a 7 mm stone may or may not cause symptoms. Whether you need surgery depends on your current health and symptoms.

When Gallbladder Stone Needs Surgery:

• If you're experiencing pain in the upper right abdomen (especially after meals)

• Nausea, vomiting, bloating, or digestion issues

• Fever or jaundice (could indicate infection or blockage)

• Multiple episodes of discomfort or confirmed stone on ultrasound

In such cases, laparoscopic cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal surgery) is the most effective and permanent solution. It’s minimally invasive and usually done as a day-care procedure.

When Medicines Might Work:

• If the stone is asymptomatic (no pain, no complications)

• Doctors may suggest watchful waiting with regular monitoring

• In rare cases, medicines like ursodeoxycholic acid may help dissolve small cholesterol stones, but the success is limited and very slow

What You Should Do:

• Get an ultrasound and consult a gastroenterologist or general surgeon

• Avoid fatty, oily foods which can trigger gallbladder attacks

• If symptoms develop, surgery is usually advised to avoid future complications like pancreatitis or infection
