After surgery to remove gallstones, many patients think they are completely cured. But in fact, up to 50% of patients with gallstones survive or recur after 3 to 5 years of surgery. Particularly with gallstones, the time to relapse is earlier, maybe only a few months after treatment.

My mother was born in 1979, had gallstones but had a first operation and it reappeared but now 40mm, recently appeared more liver stones. The doctor asked me, what to do with recurrent gallstones?

I had surgery for gallstones 3 months ago, but recently, I have severe abdominal pain lasting about 30 minutes or 1 hour, then it goes away. Please ask the doctor if the abdominal pain after surgery for gallstones 3 months is a recurrence of stones? Thanks for the advice doctor.
