I have a 1.5 cm gallstone and my surgeon recommended surgery to remove the gallbladder. Are there any other treatment options besides surgery I should consider? I'm a bit worried about going under the knife and want to explore alternatives if possible.

This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.

Complete recovery after stapler circumcision usually takes only 1 to 2 weeks. The rate of healing after circumcision depends upon multiple factors that include anatomical abnormalities, medical comorbidities, surgical technique, sterility of the condition, training experience of the surgeon and the patient's age
