I have multiple gallbladder stones with the largest being 8.5 mm. Due to the pandemic, I can't get surgery right now but every morning I wake up with stomach heaviness and a dry feeling near my neck. What can I do to manage this situation?

Multiple gallstones best managed with diet alteration,hydration,choleretic herbs (like milk thistle),and ursodeoxycholic acid until surgery is possible.

I've been dealing with jaundice for the past two months, and I just can't seem to shake it off. My s. bilirubin count is currently at 1.8, but it was 1.4 just last week, so it keeps fluctuating. I was also diagnosed with a fatty liver, grade 2, and I'm not sure what the best way forward is. I'm 22 years old, weighing in at 94kg, and I'm not a drinker. I've cut out dairy and oily foods for two months now, but nothing's changed. Is there still a chance for me to recover completely? What's the best thing for me to do?

your persistent jaundice, fluctuating bilirubin levels, and fatty liver diagnosis, and they may recommend lifestyle modifications, such as increasing physical activity to aid weight loss, adopting a balanced diet with fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, and limiting sugary drinks and processed foods, as well as medications like ursodeoxycholic acid or vitamin E to help manage fatty liver and jaundice

I'm having some weird symptoms that are really worrying me. Sometimes my stomach makes these burping sounds, and I have this cough-like feeling and a lump in my throat. My chest feels tight, mostly on the left side but sometimes on the right too, and it gets really hard to lie down comfortably. I'm getting anxious and scared that it might be a heart attack or something serious. I haven't been able to sleep well for a long time. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm having this really uncomfortable pain in my lower left abdomen, and it seems to be spreading to my back. It hurts even more when I'm sitting down, especially on the back side. I'm not sure why this is happening. Should I be worried about it? What could be causing this kind of pain?

Could be indicative of a kidney stone. I would recommend taking over-the-counter pain relief medication such as Tylenol (acetaminophen) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain. It is important to drink plenty of water to help flush out the kidney stone. If the pain persists or worsens, please seek medical attention for further evaluation and management.
