Patient's question:
Liver area dull pain, ALT level over 20, long history, tried many medications but with poor results. How many days after minimally invasive gallbladder surgery can one be discharged?Doctor's answer:
After minimally invasive surgery for gallstones, patients are usually discharged about 1 to 2 weeks later. This depends on the condition of full recovery, and it is recommended to have periodic follow-up CT and ultrasound scans to monitor the recovery status. If there are pain symptoms, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can be taken for treatment. The incision area must be regularly dressed to prevent infection, and a light diet should be maintained as the foundation.
