I'm currently on Rifagut 400 for a bacterial stomach infection, but I'm also dealing with a pretty bad throat infection. Is it okay to take Azithromycin at the same time as Rifagut?

I've got a 4mm gallstone and multiple small ones do I really need surgery or is there a way to dissolve them? Will they go away on their own or do I have to do something about it?

MIGHT TAKE 1-2 WEEKS .

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

I have gallbladder stones but don't experience much pain just occasional mild stomach discomfort from acidity. Should I consider surgery to remove my gallbladder, and if so, when would be the right time to go for it?

If symptoms like pain abdomen,discomfort and conservative tt fails then surgery is advised o the patient.

I've been dealing with acidity problems for the last 5 years, and it's been really tough. I get these severe stomach aches because of it, and they only seem to go away when I take medicine like meftal spas. I'm really looking for a more permanent solution for this. What can I do?

i understand your concern...try eating several small meals instead of three large ones whenever you can...Avoid foods that irritate your stomach, especially those that are spicy, acidic, fried or fatty... avoid coffee,tea etc... Avoid stress,consider calming activities, such as meditation, yoga etc...sleep with head raised position and have dinner at least 2 hours before sleep..take over pantaprazole 40 mg twice daily before food with above for 15 days.
