View allMy mom is 65 and has gallbladder stones but refuses surgery. We're really worried because she's had them for a while now. Are there any other treatment options besides surgery that could help her?
While gallbladder surgery (cholecystectomy) is the most common and effective treatment for gallstones, there are alternative non-surgical options that may be considered, especially if surgery is not an option. These include oral dissolution therapy with medications like ursodiol or chenodiol, which can dissolve cholesterol gallstones, and endoscopic procedures like ERCP to remove stones stuck in the bile ducts

I've been looking into taking Himalaya Liv 52, but I'm a bit confused about the right dosage. Should I be taking it before meals or after? Also, how many times a day is it recommended to take it? I'm just trying to make sure I get it right.
The recommended dosage of Himalaya Liv.52 is 2-3 tablets, 2-3 times a day, and it's best taken after food to minimize potential stomach upset, as Liv.52 is an ayurvedic herbal supplement designed to support liver health and detoxification.
