Question

I've been having really bad gas pain and back pain lately and the USG showed multiple gallstones with the largest one being 0.44cm in my gallbladder. Is there any medicine that can dissolve these stones instead of surgery and if so how long would it take to work

Multiple gallstones detected via ultrasound can definitely cause the type of gas and back pain you're experiencing. The pain is likely due to the gallstones blocking the bile ducts, which is a condition called biliary colic. It's important to consult with a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment, as gallstones can lead to more serious complications if left untreated.

Question

I accidentally ate a packet of biscuits and later noticed there was a hole in the packet. I didn't eat the last biscuit since it looked like it was carved from one side. It happened on an empty stomach along with tea, and it's been 12 hours now. I don't feel any noticeable symptoms, but I'm a bit worried. Should I be concerned about this?

Question

I've been struggling with what I think is erosive gastritis for over a year now, and it's really been a constant battle with different stomach issues popping up every day. Is this something that can actually be cured? I've tried a few things, but nothing seems to give lasting relief. Should I be worried about this going on for so long?

Question

I'm feeling a really sharp pinching pain right when I start to have a bowel movement. I've dealt with constipation before, but this pain is new to meand it first happened even when I wasnt constipated. There's no medication I'm taking that could explain this. Any ideas on what might be going on?
