Hello doctor! I am 24 years old this year and once I had abdominal pain with symptoms like appendicitis, but I went back to check out gallbladder polyps and it has been 7 years and 6 months. Recently, I went back to ultrasound and was diagnosed with multiple gallbladder polyps, according to the diagnosis, the largest polyp was 20mm. May I ask, if I am 24 years old, I have multiple gallbladder polyps, should I remove it? Someone advised the pain to be cut, but I did not see any signs of pain.

Hello! With the question "Should I be removed at the age of 24 years with multiple gallbladder polyps?" Your doctor would advise as follows: Your gallbladder polyp is a polyp and is 2cm large, so you should see a Gastroenterology specialist for treatment advice and follow-up.
