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.

I've been having this stomach issue where I burp all day long, and it's driving me crazy. No matter what I eat or drink, even if it's just water, I end up burping like crazy afterward. It feels like there's something off. Could you help me figure out what's going on? I'm a bit worried and looking for some advice.

Can be due to various reasons such as swallowing air while eating or drinking, acid reflux, or certain gastrointestinal conditions. I recommend trying over-the-counter medication like Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast to reduce stomach acid production and alleviate burping symptoms. Additionally, avoid carbonated drinks, chewing gum, and eating too quickly. If the symptoms persist, please consult a doctor for further evaluation.

I've been waking up every morning feeling like I'm going to puke, but I don't actually vomit. It's just gagging, and sometimes a little bit of spit comes out. This has been happening for a few days now. I dont smoke or drink, and I eat a pretty normal dinnerabout four chapatis with sabji. I usually get about 6 to 9 hours of sleep a night. What's going on with me, and how can I stop this from happening?

It sounds like you might be experiencing morning nausea or acid reflux, especially since you mention gagging and saliva production. This can happen due to the stomach acids irritating the esophagus after a long night without food. I recommend avoiding heavy meals late at night, and consider eating a lighter dinner. If this persists, you might want to consult a doctor to check for reflux or other underlying causes.

I've been having this issue where I end up vomiting just saliva every morning after I brush my teeth or drink water. I tried taking aciloc rd, but it's not helping at all. Any ideas on what I should do or what might be causing this?

Your morning vomiting of saliva, also known as hypersalivation or morning nausea, could be related to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
