I've been having stomach pain every five minutes for the past three days, and it feels like my stomach is swelling. Do you have any idea what could be happening or how I can make it stop?

View allI'm wondering why my stool is always loose in the morning. Each day I drink a lot of water right after I wake up, and then have a cup of tea which really makes me want to go to the toilet. I usually drink water before sitting on the toilet to pass stool. Could all this be the reason for my loose stools? What can I do to have a more normal, smooth, and long stool thats easier to pass?
Drinking lots of water, especially on an empty stomach, and consuming tea in the morning may contribute to loose stools; to achieve normal, smooth, and well-formed stools, try the following: drink water in moderation, avoid drinking water immediately before passing stools, eat a balanced breakfast to help firm up stools, incorporate fiber-rich foods (fruits, vegetables, whole grains), exercise regularly, and consider reducing or avoiding morning tea or switching to herbal tea to minimize caffeine's laxative effect.

I have gallstones and everyone keeps telling me I need to get my gallbladder removed through surgery. But I'm wondering can't they just take out the stones like they do with kidney stones? Why does the whole gallbladder have to go?
While kidney stones can sometimes be treated non-surgically or by breaking them up, the same approach for gallstones is less common and often not recommended. Gallstones in the gallbladder are generally removed with the gallbladder during a cholecystectomy
