I'm feeling really uncomfortable with my stomach lately. It feels bloated and sometimes acidic, and I just have this heavy feeling in my stomach. It seems like my motions aren't complete, and I have constant gastric issues. Also, whenever I press my stomach with my hands, I start to burp. What could be causing this, and should I be worried about it?

I've been dealing with indigestion because of gallstones, with the biggest one measuring 7.5mm. A lot of people are telling me to get my gallbladder removed surgically, but I'm not sure about that. Some are suggesting Ayurveda instead. Is there any way to treat gallstones properly with medications alone, without needing surgery?
