I had an ultrasound that showed two echogenic foci measuring 4.6mm and 3mm but my liver, kidneys, spleen, and pancreas are normal. My doctor recommended surgery but I'm hesitant can this be treated with medications instead or should I wait a month to see if it resolves on its own? I really don't want to rush into a laparoscopy unless absolutely necessary. What would you suggest?

Whether surgery is needed depends on the exact diagnosis, size, and severity of the condition. Some cases can be managed without surgery, while others may require it for effective treatment. A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.
