I've been told I have multiple small gallstones of different sizes. Can Ayurvedic medicine really dissolve them completely so I won't need surgery? I'm worried about the stones causing problems later if they don't go away

Oral dissolution therapy. Ursodiol link (Actigall) and chenodiol link (Chenix) are medicines that contain bile acids that can break up gallstones. These medicines work best to break up small cholesterol stones. You may need months or years of treatment to break up all stones.

I've been dealing with loose motions for a while now. I started taking Eldoper for around 10 days, and it seemed to help, but now that I've stopped the medicine, the loose motions are back, and my stomach is making these weird noises too. What could be going on here?

Question

I have mild deep probe tenderness in the RIF and a few tiny mesenteric lymph nodes found on my scan. Since I've been on antibiotics, the pain has gone away do I still need surgery for this? Also, is it okay to eat mildly spicy foods now, and what kind of diet should I follow to avoid making things worse? I really don't want to deal with appendix issues again how can I prevent this without surgery?
