A member asked:
I'm 32. this year i was diagnosed with gallstones, the largest is 2 cm. gallbladder wall normal. should i have my gallbladder removed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not yet: many people have gallstones and have no symptoms, these people require no intervention. others who have abdominal attacks that increase in frequency and intensity, will cause a more urgent evaluation by surgery. if pain is severe persistent or associated with fever surgery becomes more emergent.
