I'm having this ongoing itching issue around my anus, and it's been quite a while now. I tried taking Bandy Plus, but it hasn't helped. The itching gets worse when I'm walking. Any idea what's going on or what I can do about it?

I've been told I have multiple small gallstones of different sizes. Can Ayurvedic medicine really dissolve them completely so I won't need surgery? I'm worried about the stones causing problems later if they don't go away

Oral dissolution therapy. Ursodiol link (Actigall) and chenodiol link (Chenix) are medicines that contain bile acids that can break up gallstones. These medicines work best to break up small cholesterol stones. You may need months or years of treatment to break up all stones.
