View allI've been having loose motions since early this morning and I've already had two bouts of watery stools. Can you suggest any medicine? I wonder if it's because I ate some tomato-based curry outside yesterday. I've just moved to Mumbai a couple of days ago.

I've been having this pain on the right side below my chest for the last two days, especially when I breathe and yawn. I've also been burping all day. This started after I was fasting on Saturday and had liquid fasting on Monday. I did take a gas tablet yesterday, but the pain is still there today when I woke up. I can't visit a hospital right now because of the lockdown and the situation outside. Do you think this could just be gas pain?

My ultrasound showed a thickened gallbladder wall with a 15mm polyp and a few small calculi. The doctor prescribed antibiotic drips twice a day for infection, but my stomach feels bloated like there's air inside. Is this serious? Can it be treated with just meds or will I need surgery?
It's important to follow up with your doctor to discuss your concerns and the treatment plan, as they will have the most accurate information about your specific situation. While a thickened gallbladder wall, a 15mm polyp, and small calculi (gallstones) are concerning, they don't necessarily mean immediate surgery is needed. The 15mm polyp does increase the risk of malignancy, and polyps larger than 10mm are often recommended for removal. Your doctor's decision about treatment will depend on several factors, including the size and type of polyp, the presence of gallstones, and whether you are experiencing symptoms
