My mom's gallbladder shows an 11mm size but she has no symptoms at all should we consider surgery or can it resolve on its own? What are the best ways to clear the gallbladder naturally?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
If your mom has an 11 mm gallstone but no symptoms (asymptomatic), surgery is usually not needed right away. Many people live without issues, but regular monitoring is advised. Gallstones typically don't dissolve on their own, and "natural" remedies are not proven to clear them. Surgery is considered only if symptoms develop.

View allI've been having this burning pain at my anus when I sit, and it gets worse after I pass stools. This has been going on for about two weeks now, and I'm really starting to get worried. What could be causing this? Should I be concerned about any specific conditions? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Cannot be diagnosed without examining the area. Possible anal fissure, or hemorrhoids.

Hey, I've been having some breathing issues for the past six months and it's bothering me a lot. Im a 26-year-old guy with a lean build, but my belly sort of sticks out and I'm wondering if its related. Every night about 20 minutes after I fall asleep, I wake up suddenly feeling breathless and like my throat is narrowing. Drinking a glass of water seems to help, and then I can sleep through the rest of the night. In the morning, there's this discomfort in my upper chest, along with a weird taste in my mouth and it feels dry, which wakes me up. Sometimes I notice I clench my teeth in my sleep too. I've noticed whenever I eat, whether it's lunch or dinner, the discomfort in my stomach and chest gets worse and my breathing problems intensify. If I lie down for a while, it seems to help. And if I have a drink, the next day's breathing and eating feel even more difficult. The tightness in my chest and stomach is really noticeable when Im sitting down. Also, I walk 4 kilometers daily. Could these things be connected, and what should I do about it?
