I'm a bit concerned after an ultrasound during my wife's health checkup showed a small gallbladder polyp. The doctor mentioned it's around 15mm and said not to worry too much, but I'm still wondering about the implications. Can you suggest a good doctor in Bangalore to consult for a second opinion or further advice? Additionally, I'm curious about what role homeopathy treatment might play and if there are any reputable homeopathy doctors you recommend.

A small gallbladder polyp of 15mm size is generally considered to be low risk for malignancy. However, it is important to monitor it regularly as there is a small risk of it developing into a cancerous growth over time. In Bangalore, you can consult with a Gastroenterologist or a Hepatobiliary Surgeon for further advice on the management and monitoring of the gallbladder polyp. As for homeopathy treatment, there is limited scientific evidence to support its efficacy in treating gallbladder polyps. It is always recommended to follow evidence-based medical treatments for such conditions. If you still wish to explore homeopathy, you can consult with a qualified and experienced homeopath for personalized treatment options.

I'm having a tough time with acidity. I've been dealing with a burning sensation in my upper stomach and it often makes me feel breathless. Sometimes I even have to catch my breath, and I've noticed this happening for about 6 years now. There's occasionally a wheezing sound and I often feel bloated too. Could all these symptoms be connected and what should I do about it?
