I'm 27 and have been having stomach pain lately, got diagnosed with gallbladder stones where one is 12mm. The doctor recommended laparoscopic surgery but didn't prescribe any meds. Is surgery the only way or can this be treated with medicines instead?

View allWas wondering if I should be worried. I had hernia repair surgery on my right side but this past week I've been coughing a lot and now I'm feeling pain on my left side too. Is this something I should be concerned about?
It's not uncommon to experience discomfort or pain on the opposite side after hernia surgery due to compensatory strain. However, persistent pain or new symptoms like coughing could indicate an issue that should be evaluated by your doctor to ensure everything is healing properly. Please consult your healthcare provider for a thorough assessment.

I had surgery last month and still can't walk much because my stitches hurt. I've noticed I'm starting to gain weight since I'm not as active. What can I do to manage this without putting too much strain on my healing body?
To manage post-surgery weight gain during a period of limited mobility, focus on a healthy, balanced diet, monitor your calorie intake, and gradually reintroduce gentle movement as tolerated. Avoid overeating or consuming excessive sugary or fatty foods. Staying hydrated and getting enough rest can also help.
