Is Removal Of Gall Bladder The Only Option For Large Number Of Gall Bladder Stones?
Recently a person I know had gallbladder surgery . Post surgery her family was told she was found to have 100 gallstones which were removed. Is this an unusually high number for a person to have? And is the removal of the gall adder the only way to correct this?

Hi welcome to the health care magic
Yes 100 stone are too much high...
In gall stone clinical correlation is must...
If the Pateint is asymptomatic than no need for worry.. Just observation done regularly with USG...
But if stones are multiple and painful than only option is surgery by laproscopy or open gall bladder removal..
Udiliv drug 300 mg routinely prescribed for stone that is beneficial in few patient
Hope your query solved
Take care
