I'm dealing with this annoying pain on the left side of my abdomen, and I think it might be some gastric issue. The weird thing is, it gets worse after I eat, and it's messing with my toilet routine too. What could be going on? Any insights would really help.

I've had gallstones for 10 months now and tried homeopathic treatment from four different doctors some gave constitutional remedies, others specific gallstone medicines. While it helped with gas and pain, my stones actually increased from 4-5 to over 10. The biggest is 13mm and the rest are around 8-10mm. Is there still hope with homeopathy, or should I consider surgery as my last option? Can Ayurvedic medicine dissolve stones larger than 10mm?

A 13 mm stone in the gallbladder is considered a medium-sized stone, posing a moderate risk of complications. While it may not always necessitate immediate surgery, it warrants careful monitoring and may require surgical intervention if symptoms develop.

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 .

I'm dealing with jaundice and I'm a bit concerned. My total bilirubin level was 4.1 mgdl about 20 days ago, and now it's down to 0.89 mgdl according to today's report. Does this mean everything's fine now? My urine and the whites of my eyes still don't look normal. What should I do at this point, and is there a specific diet chart I should follow?

don't worry it takes time to come to normal
