Hi,
With the question "Should I go for surgery for gallstones with a size of 0.3x0.3?", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Your case has gallstones 0.3x0.3 surgery is not required. Your pain may have other causes, often due to the pain of peptic ulcer disease. You should see a doctor to find the cause and treat it.
