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
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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.

View allI've been taking Claribid 500 for a few days now, but I've started experiencing some upper abdominal pain. It's been about three days, and I'm also finding it hard to breathe properly. Could this be a side effect of the medication? Should I be concerned, or is this something that'll go away on its own?

I've just been told I have grade 2 fatty liver NASH, and I'm trying to wrap my head around what kind of diet I should follow. Since I eat a lot of rice, I'm really curious about which type would be best for me. Could you help me figure this out?
For grade 2 fatty liver NASH, it is important to follow a healthy diet to manage the condition. You should focus on consuming a diet that is low in saturated fats, refined sugars, and processed foods. Instead, opt for a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. In terms of rice, it is recommended to choose whole grains such as brown rice or wild rice over white rice. Brown rice is a good option as it is high in fiber and nutrients, which can be beneficial for your liver health. You can include brown rice in your diet in moderation and pair it with lean proteins and plenty of vegetables for a well-balanced meal. Additionally, it is important to monitor your portion sizes and avoid overeating, even if it is a healthier option like brown rice. Regular exercise and staying hydrated are also important factors in managing fatty liver NASH.
