According to your symptoms I think you may have pain because of gallbladder stones so I suggest you should consult the gastroenterologist or laparoscopic gallbladder surgeon to assess whether the stone is causing pain to you or the pain is because of some other reason.The size of the stone has no relation regarding the severity of the pain it means even a small stone can give rise to severe pain.
So anyone with any number of the stones or any size of the stones of having the pain because of gallbladder stone he should consider gallbladder stone removal surgery for treatment and to avoid upcoming complications in the future. If you have the pain and the fever there may be the possibility of developing infection in the gallbladder so in this situation I suggest you to consult to the doctor and get appropriate blood test to look for the exact cause and a relation of the pain and gallbladder stone.
Next Steps
In diet you should eat a food with less amount of oil or ghee butter. Medicines are given to relieve the pain. There is no effective medicine to dissolve the stones medicines are given to manage the problems created by the stones.

[ ] Hi if there is no upper abdominal pain / post meal fullness / discomfort / upper back pain , then you don't require surgery. This is asymptomatic gall stone. In case you develop any of above symptoms then you require surgery. Any stone more than 1 CMS in size needs removal of gall bladder. There is no any medicines in present world to dissolve gall bladder stone. Laparoscopic approach is gold standard for gall bladder removal. You can read my article on Practo- Gall bladder stone.Feel free to ask any further quary.
