Gall bladder polyp 4.4x3.9 mm
Please suggest, I have recently found on my ultrasound report a gall bladder polyp measuring 4.4x3.9mm. I don't have any symptoms or any problem with this. I am not sure I should be worried about it or not as lab technician informed that polyp size is very small and doesn't need any treatment as of now but still he advised me to consult doctor.kindly suggest.
