I have multiple gallstones with a large one measuring 10-12 mm but no pain so far just occasional indigestion, acidity, and gas issues. Should I consider surgery now or wait? Could homeopathy be an option or is that not advisable?
It's best to consult with a surgeon and/or your general practitioner to determine the best course of action for your specific situation. While you're currently asymptomatic, a large gallstone can increase the risk of complications like blockages or infections, potentially requiring surgery. Homeopathy is not a scientifically proven treatment for gallstones and may not be effective, according to medical professionals

My partner has had constant belching, bloating, and loose motions since yesterday gone to the bathroom over 12 times already. He can't leave the house because he's recovering from sepsis surgery. Is there any way to get a doctor to come to our place? What could be causing this?
Your partner's symptoms of constant belching, bloating, and loose motions, particularly the frequency of bathroom visits (over 12 times in a day), warrant seeking medical attention. These symptoms could indicate a variety of conditions, including Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), food poisoning, or other infections. A doctor can properly diagnose the cause and recommend appropriate treatment.
