How is gallstone treated best?
There are many ways to treat gallstones. At present, there are two main methods to treat gallstones, one is surgical treatment. The other is non-surgical therapy, that is, symptomatic treatment of traditional Chinese and western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine treatment. Both therapies have their advantages and disadvantages.

The surgical treatment of gallstones can be divided into general surgery and minimally invasive surgery.

1. General surgical treatment

For some ineffective large stones, the gallbladder can be directly removed by surgery, which can quickly eradicate the focus, which is the best way at present. However, surgery has certain indications.

2. Minimally invasive surgery

Just cut three small incisions of 2 ~ 3 cm in the abdomen. The operation method is simple, minimally invasive and quick to recover. However, minimally invasive surgery is difficult to remove small stones and can also induce stones.
