Gallstones usually do not dissolve. Definite treatment is surgery. But if there is no pain then you can delay the surgery, it’s not an emergency.

Since the gall-stone is small you could try a course of medication to dissolve it. The gall-stones when they are in the gall-bladder usually do not cause pain. However sometimes they get stuck in the neck or in the outlet tubes causing severe pain and jaundice. Kindly consult a good physician.
