What could be the cause of having a stone in the stomach? If someone has a stone, what kind of food should they eat or avoid? Is it okay to eat cucumber or tomato? Please let me know.

Stomach stones, also known as gastroliths, typically form due to accumulation of calcium salts, bile, and other substances, often caused by factors like excessive gastric acid, bile reflux, or dietary habits; to manage stomach stones, it's recommended to eat foods that are easy to digest, such as bananas, rice, applesauce, and lean proteins, while avoiding spicy, fatty, or acidic foods like citrus fruits, tomatoes, and cucumbers, which can irritate the stomach and worsen symptoms.
