I have a 7mm gallstone and was wondering if it can be treated with medicine or if surgery is needed. I had a normal delivery in December 2016 and am currently breastfeeding my baby if I need surgery, will I still be able to feed my baby?

A 7mm gallbladder stone may require surgical removal, especially if it's causing pain or complications. If you need surgery, it's essential to discuss with your doctor whether its safe to breastfeed post-surgery.

I'm really worried because I had surgery about a year ago for a pilonidal sinus, and now the wound just won't heal. It's been at least 90 days since it stopped showing any signs of improvement. Can you give me some advice or suggestions on what to do?
