Hello! Thanks for putting your query in Chat Doctor. I am a Gastroenterologist. I can understand your concerns. Treatment for Gallstone is surgical management only that is cholecystectomy. If pain is there then take some antispasmodic agent like Chat Doctor. I hope I have answered your query and this will help you. Wish you a good health
