Patient's question:
Got pregnant and gave birth to a child. During the postpartum period, I suddenly experienced severe upper abdominal pain and went to the hospital for an emergency check-up, which revealed gallstones measuring 0.5 cm and multiple stones. The anteroposterior diameter of the gallbladder was 3.2 cm. At that time, because I was postpartum, I received strict treatment with some anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving medications. During the postpartum recovery period, I experienced severe pain three or four times. After the full moon, I went to the hospital for a follow-up check-up: the anteroposterior diameter of the gallbladder was about 0.8 cm, the longitudinal diameter was about 3.4 cm, and multiple stones with sizes of about 0.30.4 cm were observed inside the gallbladder. The conclusion was gallstones and a reduced gallbladder volume. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
