Suggest Medication For Hardness And Pain At The Center Of Stomach
My husband has had trouble (ATTACKS) for over a year now. He had test ran a few months ago and his gall bladder was functioning at 21%. He chose to watch his fat intake and spices over gall bladder surgery. This has helped but now he has started having attacks again. He says it gets real hard at the center of his stomach at the top. He doubles over in pain. It has recently lasted for about 30 minutes. There is no gall stones. Do you think his gall bladder should be removed?

Hi,
You have given insufficient history. Age? Stool habits? Pain and eating habits?
There is no question of gall bladder removal stones. Secondly, pain may properly be investigated by a gastroenterologist. Wish the patient good and sound health.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Tayyab Malik
