View allI have an 18mm gallbladder stone and my doctor recommended surgery to remove the gallbladder. Is this the best treatment option or are there other alternatives I should consider? I'm a bit worried about the surgery and want to understand if it's really necessary for a stone this size. What would you advise?
An 18mm gallbladder stone is quite large and can cause complications like pain, infection, or blockage. Surgery (cholecystectomy) is generally the best and safest treatment to prevent these issues. While non-surgical options exist, they are less effective for stones this size. I recommend discussing the risks and benefits with your surgeon, but surgery is usually advised in your case.

I've had this pricking pain near my belly button for about 6 months now, and it gets worse when I cough. My scan showed an umbilical hernia - should I be worried? Do I need surgery for this or are there medicines that can help? Really confused about what treatment would be best for my case.
An umbilical hernia, while often not serious, can cause discomfort and may require surgery, depending on the severity and your individual circumstances. While medications cannot cure a hernia, they can help manage pain. Your doctor can best assess your situation and determine the most appropriate treatment plan for your case
