Question

My wife has an 18 mm stone in her gall bladder and sometimes she feels pain because of it. I'm wondering if there are ayurvedic treatments for this or if she will have to rely only on allopathic medicine.

For an 18 mm gallbladder stone, Ayurvedic treatments like certain herbs (e.g., Gokshura, Triphala) may help manage symptoms, but they might not dissolve large stones. Allopathic treatment, including possible surgery or non-invasive methods like lithotripsy, is usually recommended for stones of this size. It's best to consult a doctor for a personalized approach.

Question

I'm really worried because I've just been diagnosed with a grade 2 fatty liver and my sgpt is at 70.05. I've started feeling a dull abdominal pain, and even though I've cut out oily junk food and now walk about 3-4 kms daily, I'm struggling to get a good night's sleep, probably because of stress. Lately, I've noticed that after eating cabbage sabji for dinner, I can smell cabbage in my stool the next day. Could this mean something, or am I just overthinking it? Would love to hear your thoughts.

Question

I'm a bit concerned because for the past month my stool has been kind of granular instead of solid. Should I be worried about this? Would love some guidance.

Question

I'm really worried because during dinner last night, I suddenly started vomiting with a lot of pain in my throat. Its happened about 10 times now, and every time I try to swallow food or even water, it just brings on more vomiting. My throat is still hurting a lot and Im not sure whats going on. Can you help me understand what might be happening and what I should do?
