I've been diagnosed with mild reducible bilateral inguinal hernia but sometimes the pain gets really bad on both sides. Are there any ayurvedic medicines that could help manage this and possibly avoid surgery?

I have an 18mm gallbladder stone and my doctor recommended surgery to remove the gallbladder. Is this the best treatment option or are there other alternatives I should consider? I'm a bit worried about the surgery and want to understand if it's really necessary for a stone this size. What would you advise?
An 18mm gallbladder stone is quite large and can cause complications like pain, infection, or blockage. Surgery (cholecystectomy) is generally the best and safest treatment to prevent these issues. While non-surgical options exist, they are less effective for stones this size. I recommend discussing the risks and benefits with your surgeon, but surgery is usually advised in your case.

An umbilical hernia is an unusual bulge you can often see or feel over your belly button (umbilicus). It develops when part of your small intestine, together with fat or fluid, forms a sac. The sac pushes through an opening or weakness in your abdominal wall muscle
