For gallbladder microsurgery in Kolkata, Medica Superspecialty Hospital and Manipal Hospitals - Mukundapur are highly regarded. Justdial recommends several doctors specializing in laparoscopic cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal via keyhole surgery). Dr. Purnendu Roy of Genesis Hospital and Dr. Susenjit Prasad Mahato are also highly recommended for their expertise in this area.

Had left side indirect inguinal hernia surgery last June and now getting back into weightlifting and core exercises. Is it safe to start or could this increase the risk of the hernia coming back?

Yes, it's generally safe to resume weightlifting and core exercises after hernia surgery, especially after a laparoscopic repair, but it's crucial to do so gradually and under the guidance of your surgeon. Starting too soon or with improper technique could increase the risk of recurrence or complications.

I'm dealing with a pilonidal sinus and am debating between laser surgery, pilonidal plasty, or traditional surgery. I've heard that recovery might not be complete with laser surgery. Any advice on whether laser surgery is effective for this? I'm feeling a bit worried and would appreciate your guidance.

Both laser surgery (pilonidal laser treatment) and traditional surgery can be effective for pilonidal sinus. However, laser surgery may not always fully resolve the issue, and there's a chance of recurrence. Traditional surgery, while more invasive, typically offers a higher success rate for complete recovery. It's best to discuss with your doctor to determine the most suitable option for your condition.
