How Can Ayurveda Help Dissolve Gallbladder Stones Without Surgery? - #15609
I was recently diagnosed with gallbladder stones, and my doctor said they might need to be removed if they start causing pain. Right now, I don’t have severe symptoms, but I do feel discomfort after eating oily or heavy food. I really don’t want to go through surgery if I can avoid it, so I started looking into natural ways to dissolve gallbladder stones. I came across Ayurveda, and I read that certain herbs and lifestyle changes can help break down gallbladder stones naturally. Is this actually possible? Are there Ayurvedic remedies that can dissolve the stones over time, or is surgery the only option? I’ve heard about herbs like Gokshura, Punarnava, and turmeric being good for gallbladder health—do they actually work for shrinking gallbladder stones? Also, are there specific dietary changes I should make? I eat a lot of fried food, and I heard that can make stones worse. Should I be avoiding certain foods altogether? Another thing I’m wondering about is whether small gallbladder stones can pass naturally without medical intervention. I read that some people use castor oil packs or herbal detox methods to help the body flush out stones—does this actually work, or is it risky? If anyone has successfully avoided surgery and dissolved gallbladder stones naturally, I’d love to hear what worked for you. How long did it take to see results? Should I be doing anything specific to prevent more stones from forming in the future? I really want to avoid surgery if possible, so any advice from people who have dealt with this naturally would be really helpful.
