My father has a 9mm CBD stone and has been having abdomen pain and jaundice for the last three days. Can this be treated without surgery or is surgery the only option? What are the alternatives?

CBD stones with jaundice usually need ERCP or surgery—delaying may cause serious complications.

View allI was just diagnosed with a hiatus hernia and I'm a bit worried - can this be managed with meds or will I need surgery? I'm not sure how serious it is and what the best treatment options are
A hiatal hernia is a condition where a part of the stomach pushes up into the chest through an opening in the diaphragm. While many people with hiatal hernias don't experience symptoms and don't need treatment, others may experience symptoms like heartburn or acid reflux that can be managed with lifestyle changes and medications. In some cases, especially with large or symptomatic hernias, surgery may be needed to repair the hernia

What could be causing this recurring problem, and what else can I do to finally get rid of it?
