What is the best treatment for gallstones

When it comes to gallstones, most people think that surgery is the only option for treatment. But in fact, if you have gallstones, it is not recommended to remove the gallbladder easily. You should focus on solving your condition symptomatically. You can take Chinese medicine, which is safer.

1. First of all, the gallbladder should never be removed lightly. That is to say, there should be clear indications for cholecystectomy. Only after careful research, when it is believed that the harm of retaining a gallbladder with disease and stones to the patient outweighs the benefits of the gallbladder's physiological function to the human body, should a cholecystectomy be performed. After gallbladder removal, a person's digestive function will be affected to a certain extent in a short period of time due to the loss of the gallbladder's function of storing bile, but the impact is not significant. The vast majority of patients will gradually adapt and will not feel any abnormalities.

2. The general treatment principle for gallstones is that stones not exceeding 5px can be checked regularly every 3 months, while stones larger than 5px must be treated surgically. The only effective treatment for gallbladder is surgery, and currently Chinese medicine conditioning is safe.
