How to treat gallstone

summary

Cholecystolithiasis is generally associated with cholecystitis. Inflammation for a long time will cause gallbladder wall thickening and increase the difficulty of operation. Especially for small stones, operation should be carried out as soon as possible to avoid sharp pain caused by small stones stuck in the cystic duct. In severe cases, it can even enter the common bile duct and cause acute suppurative cholangitis, which is life-threatening. Although conservative treatment such as infusion and taking medicine can reduce symptoms, radical treatment must be surgical treatment, and gallbladder operation is the most common operation in general surgery, so there is no need to be afraid. In addition, gallbladder only stores and condenses bile, and liver cells only secrete bile. After resection, it has little impact on diet and life, so there is no need to worry.
