Polyp in gall bladder

2021-09-24 13:55:10
I have a gall bladder polyp of 6mm( report attached). Since 2019, I have been testing at regular intervals and size is unchanged. Doctor has prevented from operation as it is small in size. By latest report also it is 6mm. I have not taken any medicine for it. There is no pain or sense also. Is there any matter to worry? Kindly suggest.

No there's is no matter of worry. GB polyp of size more than or equal to 1cm (10mm) is considered a criteria for Cholecystectomy. No specific medication is required otherwise.
