Would you please suggest me any other way of treatment.Thanks in advance,Regards.
[|AI|]  . Hi and welcome. In some cases, gallstones can be treated with medicine. Certain chemicals, unsocial or chenodiol, which have been shown to dissolve some gallstones, are available in oral bile acid pills. These medicines work by thinning the bile, which allows gallstones to dissolve. Another non-surgical treatment for which gallstones must meet certain criteria is extracorporeal shock-wave lithography (ESL). It is most effective on solitary gallstones that are less than 2 centimeters in diameter, so fewer than 15 percent of patients are eligible for ESL. The goal of the treatment is to break up, or fragment, gallstones by sending shock waves through the soft tissue of the body.
