What are the best medication options to dissolve a 78 mm gallstone without surgery and how long would I need to take them Also what foods or substances should I avoid during this treatment

Large gallstones like 78 mm don’t dissolve well; ursodiol can help in small stones—avoid fatty foods, alcohol, and fried items.

View allMy name is Sonu Kumar, I'm 25, and I'm dealing with a liver issue. The ultrasound showed my liver is fatty and grade 1. Before this, the size of my liver was large. I'm really worried about what this means for my health. Can you help me understand what's happening and what I should do next?
Fatty liver disease can be managed through lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet low in saturated fats and sugars, regular exercise, and avoiding alcohol. It's also important to control any underlying conditions like diabetes or high cholesterol that may contribute to fatty liver disease. Regular follow-up with your doctor for monitoring and further guidance is essential in managing fatty liver disease.

I'm really concerned about my ALTSGPT level, which is at 91.5. I've been taking liver supplements, eating healthy, drinking lots of water, and exercising regularly, but nothing seems to be working. Can you help me understand why it's still high and what else I might be missing in my approach?
While lifestyle changes like a healthy diet, regular exercise, avoiding alcohol, and staying hydrated can significantly improve liver health and help lower ALT levels, it is essential to identify the underlying cause with the help of your healthcare provider. Following a comprehensive treatment plan that includes the right medications, supplements, and lifestyle adjustments is key to managing liver function.

I've been struggling with bloating for a while now, and I'm wondering if there's a way to permanently fix this or if it's something I'm going to have to deal with forever.
