What are gallstones?
Gallstones are stone-like deposits that develop in the gallbladder; a small organ present under the liver. They can vary in size and are also found in bile ducts. Gallstones form when the bile contains excess bilirubin or cholesterol and not enough bile salts. If not treated or managed on time, it can cause complications like inflammation, blockage or cancer. If you experience symptoms like abdominal pain, back pain, and nausea, consult a gallstone specialist immediately. At Hambarde Urocare, the gallstone specialist will diagnose the size and location of the gallstones and suggest a best treatment accordingly.
What is the best treatment for gallstones?
The treatment for gallstones depends upon its symptoms and diagnosing reports. If you experience major symptoms like intensifying pain, you need to consult a gallstone doctor to begin the diagnosing procedure. Gallstone treatment might include medications to break and dissolve stones in the bladder. Also, a cholecystectomy, a surgery to remove a gallbladder, can be required in severe cases. At Hambarde Urocare, our gallstone specialist provides an accurate diagnosis to suggest the best treatment for you. We provide minimally invasive surgery to treat gallstones.
