I'm 27 and have been having stomach pain lately, got diagnosed with gallbladder stones where one is 12mm. The doctor recommended laparoscopic surgery but didn't prescribe any meds. Is surgery the only way or can this be treated with medicines instead?

My mom's ultrasound report shows a small appendicolith. Can this be treated with medicine or is surgery the only option? I'm a bit worried and would like to understand what's best for her
A small appendicolith, a calcified deposit in the appendix, can be managed with either medication or surgery, depending on the presence of symptoms and other factors. While surgery (appendectomy) is often recommended, especially if appendicitis develops, some cases may be managed with antibiotics and pain relief, particularly if the appendicolith is small and the patient is otherwise healthy.
