My 3-month-old daughter was diagnosed with anterior displaced anus or vulvar anus. One pediatric surgeon recommended waiting until she's 1 year old for surgery, but another doctor said it should be done now at 3 months. I'm really confused when is the best time to get the surgery done for her condition?

My cousin was just diagnosed with two gallstones - one is 7mm and the other 4mm. Do they need surgery to remove these or can it be managed without an operation? If surgery is needed, would it be considered a minor or major procedure and roughly what would the cost be?
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a very safe, minimally invasive, daycare surgery. If your epilepsy is well controlled, there’s usually no added risk. If it’s not well controlled, you can first focus on stabilizing it and then plan the surgery—it’s not an emergency. In the meantime, avoid oily and spicy food and maintain a healthy lifestyle to manage symptoms. Also, for gallstones, the gallbladder needs to be removed—just removing the stones won’t help, as they tend to recur. And ESWL is effective only for kidney stones, not for gallstones.
