Brief Answer:
It seems a sludge which usually dissolves with medication.

Detailed Answer:
Hi....
Welcome to "Ask a Doctor" service.
I am Dr Ajeet XXXXXXX

I have gone through your query/report and here is my opinion.

It seems more like a gall bladder sludge which is being referred as "soft stone" by your clinician.
Gall bladder sludge (also called as biliary sludge) is a thick collection of cholesterol, calcium, bilirubin and other digestive compounds that build up in the gall bladder due to stagnation of bile.

With the treatment,usually the biliary sludge gets dissolved and there is no solidification of concretions to form full blown gall stones.
Make some dietary modifications ,eat plentiful fiber and avoid oily,greasy,fatty foods.
Avoid junk food and alcohol.
Be well hydrated.
Be physically active and maintain ideal body weight.

In such patients,if the symptoms continue,there is persistent pain or there is a deteriorated repeat scan,sometimes surgical removal of gall bladder is advised.

Hope that I have answered your query.

Stay healthy and stay blessed.
Regards.

Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Welcome back.
Yes....you should.

Udiliv 300 Tablet is clinically used to dissolve gallstones,prevent them from gallstones,improve liver function and to treat primary biliary cirrhosis.

It's mechanism of action is by reducing the blood cholesterol and as gallbladder stones are primarily composed of cholesterol so they get dissolved.
It augments hepatic enzymes,protects liver injury due to toxic bile and thus improves liver function.

Happy living.
