Talk to experienced doctor online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
This means there are stones in the gallbladder which may be asymptomatic at present, but may become problematic later on.
In case the stones are small <1cm and radiolucent on an X-ray, you can consider taking UDCA 300mg BD just after lunch and dinner.
Stones bigger than that might require invasive methods should the symptoms develop.
Next Steps
Consult a General Surgeon.
Health Tips
1. Avoid fasting for long periods/intermittent fasting.
2. Include atleast 15-20g/day of fat in the diet to stimulate gall bladder.
