**Rephrased Query:** I have a 16mm kidney stone in my gallbladder and I'm really worried can this be dissolved with medicine or will I need surgery? I want a safe and permanent solution, so what's the best way to treat this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
16mm is very big size for a gallstone. Gall bladder stones do not get dissolved with any kind of medications. Rather with time they keep on growing and may lead to severe complications. The only safe and the permanent solution is laparoscopic surgery which is a very simple safe amd permanent treatment optikn with no side effects in whole lifetime ,please visit a laparoscopic surgeon who will explain you all the details related to surgery.avoid oily/spicy foods as these aggravate pain that is caused by the stones.

I'm 32 and considering circumcision surgery but I'm not sure where to start. Can you recommend some experienced surgeons and give an idea of the costs involved? I want to get it done soon but also want to make sure I choose the right doctor.
