My mom is 53 and has both diabetes and high blood pressure. She recently found out she has multiple gallstones. What would be better for her trying ayurvedic or homeopathic treatments, or should she just go for surgery?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For a 53-year-old woman with diabetes and high blood pressure who has multiple gallstones, surgery (cholecystectomy) is generally the most effective and recommended treatment. While Ayurvedic or homeopathic treatments might offer some relief or symptomatic management, they are not likely to eliminate the gallstones or prevent future complications

I've been dealing with GERD for 3 years now and it's really affecting my breathing. I've been on acid medications but they don't seem to help much - the issue keeps coming back and sometimes gets really bad. Are there any surgical options for this or should I stick to medication?

I've been noticing that after I eat even a small amount or just drink a glass of water, I feel really full in my upper stomach, but my lower stomach feels empty. It's kind of weird and sometimes my stomach even hurts. Also, I've been needing to go to the washroom every 3 to 4 hours after eating. Sometimes, it's like there's a lot of pressure for a bowel movement. What could be going on with my stomach?
That could be gastritis,take antacids and consume bland diet and more water to ease your stomach and take adequate rest
