I have a stone in my gallbladder and the doctor said it might be affecting my pancreas too. What's the best way to remove it should I try medicines or go for surgery? If medicines work, can you suggest some tablet names? And if surgery is better, could you recommend a good hospital near Vellore or Chennai?

I accidentally swallowed some tin foil a few weeks back and I'm worried because it feels like it's still stuck. I've seen the doctors multiple times, but they're having trouble checking down my throat. What should I do now?

I'm feeling really uneasy and have this terrible vomiting sensation along with gas. I've tried taking pudin hara tablets and even vomited once, but the feeling hasn't gone away. I also took a pantop 40 for the gas, but I'm still not feeling any better. Since it's Dussehra, I'm not sure if I can find a doctor right now apart from emergency services. Could you please advise me on what I can do to actually vomit and maybe feel some relief?

drink plenty of water and give some rest it will reduce
