Can a 14mm gallstone be healed without surgery and how long would it take Is there a chance it might come back even after treatment I don't have any symptoms right now but I'm wondering if homeopathy can dissolve the stone completely or if surgery is the better option If homeopathy can make the stone disappear, I'd like to know before visiting the clinic

A 14mm gallstone is unlikely to be resolved without surgery. While homeopathy might help manage symptoms, it's not a proven method for dissolving gallstones, especially of this size. Surgery, like laparoscopic cholecystectomy, is the most common and effective treatment for larger gallstones to prevent complications

View allI've been having this weird pulling sensation in my lower right abdomen and a dull ache just below my right breast, but it doesn't happen all the time. I haven't noticed any problems with my diet or bowel movements. About a month ago, I took some medicine for mild gastritis after talking to my doctor. Should I be concerned about these sensations, or could they be related to the gastritis or something else?
The pulling sensation in the lower right abdomen could be related to muscle strain or even issues with the appendix. The dull ache below the right breast could be due to musculoskeletal pain or even related to gastritis. Considering your history of mild gastritis, it would be advisable to continue with medications that help with gastritis such as Omeprazole (20mg) once daily before breakfast

I've been struggling with stomach bloating for about three years now. It's always accompanied by a lot of flatulence, and over the past year, I've noticed my stools becoming pencil-thin. I go to the bathroom 2-3 times a day, and there's always this slight cramping on the upper left side of my stomach. Could you tell me what might be going on and what steps I should take next?
