Generally a cholecystectomy is required to relieve the pain caused by gall stones. A cholecystectomy is the surgical removal of the gall bladder. You can reduce the pain, however probably only slightly, by taking pain medication. Also, eating fatty foods triggers the gall bladder to contract and try to squeeze bile and digestive enzymes into your small intestine to emulsify fat for easier absorption. If you reduce the amount of fat you eat, it will make the gall bladder contract less often. In the end, though, cholecystectomy is indicated to treat this condition.
