I've had a chronic anal fissure for the last three months, and it's caused a small skin tag. Can medicine alone completely heal it, or is surgery the only permanent fix? Also, if I skip surgery, could things like constipation or anal sex make the fissure worse later on? Would really appreciate your advice.

My mom is 56 years old, 5'2¬ù tall, and weighs 55 kg. She has multiple gallstones ranging from 4mm to 10-11 mm. Can this be treated naturally with homeopathy or ayurvedic medicine, or is surgery the only option? What would you recommend for her condition?

For gallstones, especially those larger than 10mm, surgery (laparoscopic cholecystectomy) is generally recommended for effective removal. While homeopathic and ayurvedic approaches may offer symptom relief and support overall digestive health, they are not proven to dissolve or remove gallstones.

I've been having some issues with my stomach after eating mangoes, and it's been giving me loose motions. I took a roko tablet, but my stomach still hurts. What should I do?

It seems like you might be experiencing digestive discomfort or a mild intolerance to mangoes, which could be causing loose motions. I recommend staying hydrated and avoiding mangoes for now. If the pain persists or worsens, it may be a good idea to consult with a healthcare provider for a more thorough evaluation.
