I've been having really bad stomach pain and my doctor said I might need gallbladder surgery. Can you tell me how much it usually costs? I'm worried about the expenses but also want to know if it's urgent.

The cost of gallbladder surgery in India varies based on the type of surgery, hospital, and other factors. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (keyhole surgery) typically costs between ‚Çπ80,000 and ‚Çπ1,50,000, while open surgery (a larger incision) ranges from ‚Çπ50,000 to ‚Çπ1,00,000. Robotic surgery is more expensive, potentially costing between ‚Çπ2,00,000 and ‚Çπ5,00,000

My baby is one month old and has an inguinal hernia. The doctor recommended surgery but I'm worried is this a minor procedure and is it safe for such a young baby

Surgery is usually necessary to prevent complications like the hernia getting trapped (incarceration) or the blood supply being cut off (strangulation). In this process, the hernia sac is tied off to stop the hernia from protruding further. After surgery, pain management and close monitoring for any issues are crucial
