Is Cholecystectomy Advisable For Gall Stones?

Hi, I am having Gall Bladder Stone which was detected in 2012 and largest one was of size 8mm, but till date I have never experienced any severe pain in my right abdomen ever. Do I need to take care of it or can I get rid of it without loosing my gall bladder ?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if the stone is not cause any obstruction then this is nothing to worry if this cause obstruction and caused jaundice then this need to be removed, some time condition can be managed medically and this depends upon the clinical symptoms and imaging status of stones, take care and have a nice day.
