Hello
Sir / Madam,
I got your health concern , it can be treated with further evaluation, medical counselling, and proper treatment.
Pls do contact .

Hello, I understand your concern â gallstones are a common problem and can cause severe pain, especially at night or after fatty meals. Unfortunately, once stones form, there is no reliable medicine that can permanently dissolve or remove them. Some medicines (like ursodeoxycholic acid) may help in very select cases, but they work only for small cholesterol stones, take months to years, and pain usually continues during treatment.
Advice
⢠Avoid oily, fried, and heavy meals, as these trigger gallbladder contractions and pain.
⢠Eat smaller, lighter meals through the day.
⢠Stay well hydrated.
What to Monitor
⢠Frequency and severity of pain episodes.
⢠Any fever, vomiting, or yellowing of eyes/skin.
Management
At present, surgery (laparoscopic cholecystectomy) is the only definitive treatment for gallstones that cause symptoms. Until then, dietary control and pain relief are the main measures.
When to consult immediately
⢠If pain becomes very severe or constant.
⢠If you develop fever, chills, jaundice, or repeated vomiting.
⢠If the pain does not settle even with simple measures.

Yes for 4 mm stone it's possible without surgery...but u have to give detailed history for cause...
U can consult GENERAL MEDICINE ...
If u have any other queries u can contact me in practo via WhatsApp number six three seven nine eight seven one one seven five...
There is .. but writing simple drugs without proper history is not good for patients many times... specially when you have acute big problem like this .
Medicine is UDCA 300mg BD ... And antispasmodics .
But let me warn you one thing.. small stones can sometimes move to small bile ducts and can cause more pain later on.. just cause they are small don't postpone surgery. It's minimal invasive now a days with advanced machines..so I still say go for surgery.. don't feel anxious one time or other many of us go through some kind of surgery.
Next Steps
here surgery offers better results.. that's truth from medicine guy ..
