I see..
I was hoping it wasn't that serious since I haven't been feeling any pain from it and my doctor said it'd be better to just leave it and keep an eye on it for now. He also said it was in my stomach, so I looked forward in optimism towards the stone just coming out or disintegrating on its own. I'll ask him more about it the next time I have an appointment. Thank-You for replying
Hi, any structural abnormalities of the gall bladder like stones or polyps need surgical correction. The stones can chronically irritate the gallbladder wall and cause inflammation and pain. Also, this chronic irritation is a predisposing cause for gallbladder cancer. If the stone is placed in the neck of the gall bladder, it can cause retention of bile, with stasis and consequent infection. So, the best option would be to have an elective gallbladder removal. Regards.
