My husband has swollen piles and the doctor recommended surgery but he also has thyroid issues and high CRP levels. Could these affect the surgery? Also, would Ayurvedic treatment be better than surgery for his condition?

View allCan you tell me if there are non-surgical treatments for hernia and how serious it is I'm really worried and need more details as soon as possible
The hernia can only be treated with surgery, really. It can be managed with the hernia belt until you're waiting for surgery, but the only real treatment for a hernia is with surgery.

I've been diagnosed with gallbladder stones a month ago - they're 10mm, 11mm, and 13mm in size. For the past 3 months I've had constant fever and chills, extreme weakness that makes it hard to even go outside, bad bloating and indigestion, plus my eyes and face look yellowish. Is gallbladder surgery my best option at this point?
Hormone therapy can feminize features; oral pills or injections both work—consult an endocrinologist or gender clinic specialist for safe and guided treatment.

I have an 18mm gallbladder stone and my doctor recommended surgery to remove the gallbladder. Is this the best treatment option or are there other alternatives I should consider? I'm a bit worried about the surgery and want to understand if it's really necessary for a stone this size. What would you advise?
An 18mm gallbladder stone is quite large and can cause complications like pain, infection, or blockage. Surgery (cholecystectomy) is generally the best and safest treatment to prevent these issues. While non-surgical options exist, they are less effective for stones this size. I recommend discussing the risks and benefits with your surgeon, but surgery is usually advised in your case.
