my husband has a 2 cm gallbladder stone with multiple calculi and had jaundice but his bilirubin levels are better now can the stones be treated with medicines or does he need surgery
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Given the 2 cm gallbladder stone, multiple calculi, and previous jaundice, surgery is likely the best course of action for your husband's gallbladder. While medications can sometimes dissolve cholesterol stones, they are less effective for other types and may not be suitable for large or multiple stones.

I'm really worried about my recent ultrasonography report. It says I have hepatomegaly, a fatty liver, and a fatty pancreas. I took Udiliv 300 for three months last year, but the fatty liver is still there. What can I do to improve my liver condition and overall health? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Fatty liver and pancreatitis require lifestyle changes for improvement. Focus on a balanced diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, and reduce alcohol intake. Regular exercise and maintaining a healthy weight are crucial. You may also want to consult a healthcare provider to evaluate whether further treatment or changes to your medication are necessary.
