I've been having this chest discomfort that's mostly in the center, but sometimes it's a bit on the left side too. Plus, there's this back pain right in the middle of my back. Last year I talked to a gastroenterologist and had an endoscopy and a chest X-ray. They didn't spot anything except a gastric problem. But here I am, a year later, feeling the same kind of discomfort again. What could be going on? Should I be worried, or is this something common that happens with gastric issues?

View allI had jaundice 3 months ago but recovered 2 months back. Now I'm having upper stomach pain again, tests showed bilirubin at 3.4 and an ultrasound found 6mm gallstones. The doctor recommended gallbladder surgery - is there any way to treat this without surgery? Can these stones dissolve on their own?
please approach a surgeon in apollo hospital

I have a 2.9cm gallstone can it be dissolved with meds or will I need surgery? I've been dealing with a lot of gas and stomach bloating too, is that related?
A gallstone of 2.9cm is relatively large and unlikely to be dissolved with medication alone. Surgery, typically cholecystectomy, is usually the recommended treatment. The gas and bloating you're experiencing could be related to the gallstone, as it can cause digestive issues and potentially lead to bloating.

I've been told I have Marginal Hepatomegaly with diffuse fatty changes, but my liver function test is normal. My liver is 14.8 cm, I'm 30, Indian male, 5.6 feet tall, and I weigh 86 kg. I don't drink alcohol, soft drinks, or tea, and I walk for 30 minutes every day. I do take allergy meds. What should I do to get my liver back to normal?
Focus on weight loss through healthy eating and regular exercise. Eat a balanced, nutrient-rich diet high in fiber and antioxidants. Continue walking daily, and aim to increase physical activity gradually. Keep a healthy lifestyle with no alcohol and limiting processed sugars. Regularly follow up with your doctor for liver health monitoring and tests.
