Is there any benefit to drinking more water for gallstones?

Patients drink more water, which is not effective in the treatment of gallstones. The main cause of gallstones is the imbalance between the dissolution of bile acids and cholesterol, resulting in the formation of cholesterol crystals, which are stimulated by the repeated action of nucleation factors to form stones. For gallstones or gallbladder stones, the most effective and reliable clinical treatment is laparoscopic cholecystectomy, which can completely cure most patients without any sequelae. Drinking water does not help in the formation, elimination and discharge of gallstones, so drinking more water does not help in the treatment of gallstones, except for urinary stones, through drinking more water to increase the excretion of urine, thus promoting the discharge of urinary stones, and even without surgical treatment and stone fragmentation, the clinical symptoms can be relieved and self-healing. Therefore, drinking more water for gallstones does not help, or drinking more water does not play a therapeutic role in the treatment of gallstones.
