Do gallbladder polyps require treatment?

  Many of our friends find gallbladder polyps, single or multiple, of different sizes during checkups. In the long-term regular review, polyps are also found to increase gradually, which leads to the concern of malignancy and other adverse outcomes. This concern is not superfluous, as there are cases where polyps gradually increase in size and eventually become malignant, and once gallbladder cancer occurs, the prognosis is very poor, therefore, treatment and regular checkups are needed.  Most of the people who suffer from this disease have the following conditions: 1. Irregular diet: excessive intake of fats (vegetable oil or animal oil) and cholesterol (animal offal/seafood) in the diet, or overeating.  2, long-term or heavy alcohol consumption.  3.Overweight.  4.Lack of exercise.  Individual polyps with a diameter of more than 5 mm should be taken seriously, and those with a diameter of more than 8 mm and internal blood flow signals are recommended for early surgical removal of the gallbladder. In the premise of reasonable diet and weight control with Chinese herbal medicine (dredging liver and Qi, blood circulation and blood stasis, softening and dispersion) internal treatment is also effective, the fastest generally takes about 40 days to be able to observe the reduction or disappearance of polyps (fixed hospital, ultrasound instrument, examining physician remains the same to avoid measurement errors). Young people have fast results, which is better than middle-aged and elderly people.
