Hello,
This is Dr.Ram
Yes madam you do need a operation called cholecystectomy as the calculus can cause further problems and hinder your lifestyle.
The operation is called Laproscopic Cholecystectomy
About the pricing i can give you a approximate idea , It can cost you around INR 25000 in a good hospital.
Post-operative may be a day.
Thank You
