I'm dealing with upper back pain and it's making it a bit hard to breathe, plus I'm feeling really bloated. There's also this annoying sensation like a cough is stuck in my throat. What's causing all this? It's really uncomfortable and I'd appreciate any advice you might have!

My mom is 56 years old, 5'2¬ù tall, and weighs 55 kg. She has multiple gallstones ranging from 4mm to 10-11 mm. Can this be treated naturally with homeopathy or ayurvedic medicine, or is surgery the only option? What would you recommend for her condition?

For gallstones, especially those larger than 10mm, surgery (laparoscopic cholecystectomy) is generally recommended for effective removal. While homeopathic and ayurvedic approaches may offer symptom relief and support overall digestive health, they are not proven to dissolve or remove gallstones.

I've been dealing with chronic acidity issues for a long time, and it seems to run in my family as both my mom and dad have a history of gastric problems. It's been particularly tough after relocating to Bangalorethings have become quite unbearable lately. I generally take 150mg of Zintac after lunch, and if it's really bad, I take Omez in the morning too. However, for the past two weeks, I've been waking up with a nauseous feeling and get heartburn within an hour after breakfast. My breakfast is usually at 7 AM, and by 10 AM, the heartburn subsides but I still feel acidic. The same cycle repeats after lunch around 12:30. I even try to eat fruit in between. Things get worse after 4 PM, with more acidity but no heartburn, just a burpy sensation. I notice I have gas mostly at night, but it's not excessive. When I take Zintac after lunch and dinner, it seems to help. Could you advise on what else I might do to manage this persistent acidity?

You may be suffering from GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease). Avoid spicy and acidic foods and quitreduce smoking if you are a smoker. Restrict alcohol intake to a minimum. Elevate the headside of your bed by 15-30 degrees, and do not lie down immediately after having a meal. Try to have smaller and more frequent meals and reduce teacoffee. You may need to go on a long term treatment regimen for chronic acidity, for which you should consult a physician.
