The specialist removed my gallstone

 It is an incident that took place 3 years back. While I was getting ready to go out for office, I suddenly felt a sharp abdominal pain in the upper right portion.

I took medicine for gas and went to the office. The pain persisted. After I reached the office, the pain increased. I had no other option than to take a painkiller, so I told the office boy to bring that, and I had it. The pain was not there till the action of the painkiller was there. Then again, the pain relapsed, and I was unable to sit properly. Even my right shoulder started to pain. I had no idea about what to do, so I discussed my situation with a colleague of mine. He said that I must not ignore it and consult a doctor as soon as possible. So I took a half-day from my office and visited my home physician. After hearing about all my symptoms, he advised me to opt for a few tests. The very next day, I got those tests done without delay as the pain persisted, and I also had a vomiting tendency from the previous evening. I was diagnosed with gallstones. My home physician referred me to a gallstonespecialist in Kolkata. I visited him, and after checking my condition thoroughly, he said that surgery would be the best treatment for me. I was under his medication and guidance. After a week, he performed laparoscopic surgery on me, and I came back home on the same day of my operation. I obeyed all that the doctor advised me post-surgery. I am completely fine now, and I thank the gallstone specialist in Kolkata from the core of my heart for providing me with the right treatment.

The pear-shaped organ that is situated on the right side of our abdomen is called the gallbladder. It stays right beneath our liver. Our digestive fluid gets hardened and takes the form of a stone in our gallbladder; those stones are called gallstones. The stones can be of different sizes and shapes. It can be as small as a grain of sand or as big as a golf ball. A patient may have one or more gallstones. Surgery is the best option to get rid of gallstones, says a gallstonespecialist in Kolkata.
