• YOUR PROBLEMS :-

Single Gall Stones 13 mm taking medication of pithorin capsules, lithobin capsules and liv 52 ds and allopathic medicine ursodeoxychilic acid of 300 mg

MEDICAL HISTORY

Diabetes

MY ADVICE

U have Single 13 mm Big Gall Stone to dissolve may be possible with long efforts if Cholestrol stone ans No other complications like Obstruction Inflammation ( Cholecystitis) Acute Pain ( Cholecystitis)

Without Complications and prolonged Treatment at least 6 months if it’s is not showing reduction in size and dissolve then U can still wait longer if no symptoms ( with Maintained diet Lifestyle) then surgery is not required

Surgery is indicated but absolutely necessary only if Gall stones is producing any complications otherwise no surgery required Even though in Between Symptoms comes goes also no question of Surgery

So I can Say SURGERY very Last Option and is Done only in Emergency othwise not necessary I have seen Gall Stones Patients with gall stones 10 yrs+ but no symptoms or less symptoms comes sometimes happily living life without any problem Even it remains not growing not creating any complications then no Treatment also required.

If the stone is in the CBD (common bile duct) you need to get operated else it may cause obstructive jaundice.

Else ayurvedic medicines will help but you will have to follow a diet regime along with medicines.

Tab. Live 52 DS 1 tab twice a day before food. Tab. Arogyavardhini Vati 2 tabs twice a day before food. Tab. Kamdudha Vati (praval yukt) 2 tabs twice a day before food. Syp. Bhunimbadi Kadha 2 tsp twice a day before food.

What you have to eat: Millet roti Buttermilk (daily include in your meal) Moong dal (green and yellow both are ok) Milk Ghee White butter (makhan) All fruit vegetables Leafy vegetables (except methi and dil) Daily Suryanamaskar

Donot’s: Tea Coffee Addictions Dals (except moong) Sour Packed food Processed food Achar (pickles) Papad Fried food

A 13 mm gallstone is not easily dissolved by ayurvedic drugs but may be managed symptomatically. If the stone is calcified it might be difficult to manage.

Ayurvedic medicines will prevent further growth and reduce symptoms .

Varunadi kashayam 15 ml+45 ml lukewarm water twice daily before food.

Punarnavadi choornam 2tsp boiled in 500 ml of water and used as drinking water.

You can consider above medicines along with your medication.

Include high fiber diet and leafy vegetables Avoid fried and processed foods, red meat, egg yolk, cheese, etc Take warm water

Dr. Manjula
I am a dedicated Ayurveda practitioner with a deep-rooted passion for restoring health through traditional Ayurvedic principles. My clinical approach revolves around understanding the unique constitution (Prakruti) and current imbalance (Vikruti) of each individual. I conduct comprehensive consultations that include Prakruti-Vikruti Pareeksha, tongue examination, and other Ayurvedic diagnostic tools to identify the underlying causes of disease, rather than just addressing symptoms. My primary focus is on balancing the doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—through individualized treatment plans that include herbal medicines, therapeutic diets, and lifestyle modifications. I believe that healing begins with alignment, and I work closely with my patients to bring the body, mind, and spirit into harmony using personalized, constitution-based interventions. Whether managing chronic conditions or guiding preventive health, I aim to empower patients through Ayurvedic wisdom, offering not just relief but a sustainable path to well-being. My practice is rooted in authenticity, guided by classical Ayurvedic texts and a strong commitment to ethical, patient-centered care. I take pride in helping people achieve long-term health outcomes by integrating ancient knowledge with a modern, practical approach. Through continuous learning and close attention to every detail in diagnosis and treatment, I strive to deliver meaningful, natural, and effective results for all my patients.

Hello, It is better to undergo surgery, if the size is not reduced even with 3 months of the ayurveda medications you are taking at present and also if you have any symptoms. Take care. Kind regards.

Dear Ashok kumar ji, Diabetes can increase the risk of gallbladder complications. Ayurved can help supportive treatment. A 13 mm gallstone is unlikely to dissolve completely with Ayurveda or medicine alone. However, if you’re asymptomatic and monitored regularly, you may delay or avoid surgery. But if there’s any pain, vomiting, fever, immediate medical attention and possible surgery will be necessary. Did you have a repeat ultrasound after taking Ursodeoxycholic acid? Ayurvedic medications you can start - 1.Punarnava kwath+ Bhumyamalaki kwath - 10 ml each mixing with warm water ( twice a day) 2.Liv 52 (2-0-2) 3.Triphala churna - 1spoon at bed time.with warm water Avoid eating

Fried, fatty, and spicy foods.

High-cholesterol diet (like red meat, egg yolk). Prefer:

Bitter veggies (karela, methi).

HELLO ASHOK, Gall bladder stones in ayurveda are known as pittashmari they are mainly due to vitiation of pitta-kasha dosha leading to deranged digestion, poor bile flow, and accumulation of unprocessed fatty acids and cholesterol in gallbladder usually >10-12mm stones are more difficult to dissolve and chances of spontaneous passage are low if- has frequent pain, stone blocks bile duct or the risk of infection - then SURGERY is advised

your stone size13 mm- without surgery dissolvation is possible especially if- stone is single and cholesterol based there is no acute inflammation like cholecystitis or severe biliary colic or symptoms are absent- asymptomatic or mild symptoms

if you follow strict diet, medication and manage your lifestyle strictly for 6-9 months it can be possible to dissolve stone

internal medication :- 1)Pithorin capsule- continue 2)lithobin capsule- 1 cap twice daily before meals 3)liv 52 DS - 1 tab twice daily after meals 4)Varunadi kashaya- 15 ml with warm water twice daily in morning and at night 5) arogyavardhini vati- 1 tab twice daily after food 6)panchatrinamool kwatha+bhoomyamlaki kwatha- 15 ml each with warm water - empty stomach in morning

these medications promote bile flow, reduce cholesterol in bile and soften gallstones

*STRICT DIET TO AVOID STONE GROWTH AVOID- fried, oily food dairy-panner, cheese,butter egg , red meat sugar, jaggery,sweets maida, bakery items late night meals pickles, fermented food

PREFER- warm water with lemon in morning-if no acidity light vegetarian meals- khichdi ,laud,torai,moog da fruits- papaya, apple,pear cumin+coriander+feenal water daily turmeric+black pepper in cooking cow ghee-1tsp/day small frequent meals to avoid gallbladder stress

lifestyle recommendations- walk 30 min daily - improves bileflow early dinner by 7:30 pm don’t skip meals or go long hours without eating avoid sleeping during day manage stress and anger- meditate for 5 min daily

when to consider surgery- recurrent pain under right ribs after meals, nausea/vomitiing, fever or chills, jaundice or yellowing of eyes

then go for surgery without waiting

*since you are diabetic its crucial to monitor blood sugar regularly take Nisha amalaki churna(haridra+amla)- 3gms before meals twice daily madhumeha kusumakar rasa- 1 tab in morning before breakfast and 1 before dinner

do follow this for 6-9 months hope this might be helpful; thank you

Gallstones, particularly ones of a larger size, can indeed be challenging to dissolve purely through Ayurvedic methods, but lifestyle modifications and herbal treatments may aid in managing symptoms and improving overall liver and gallbladder health. It’s wise to continue consulting with your healthcare provider especially since your stone is already quite large at 13mm which could potentially lead to complications. Now, if you’re seeking to explore Ayurveda’s potential benefits, there are some methods that could complement your treatment.

Typically, gallstones form due to an imbalance of Pitta dosha, so focusing on lifestyle and dietary habits to pacify this dosha might help. Here are some tailored suggestions you may want to incorporate into your routine:

1. Dietary Adjustments: Include cooling and Pitta-pacifying foods. Try to eat more fruits like pears, apples, and pomegranates, they’re generally supportive. Drinks like aloe vera juice may slightly contribute to improve the digestion and liver function.

2. Herbal Support: Ayurvedic herbs like turmeric and chicory might have beneficial effects for the liver and gallbladder. You might consider adding turmeric to your daily meals or as a tea.

3. Hydration: Make sure you’re staying well hydrated. Sipping warm water throughout the day can assist digestion and help in maintaining a regular flow for effective bile function.

4. Regularity and Routine: Eating your meals at the same time every day can also help, the digestive fire or ‘agni’ should be well maintained, it need consistency.

It’s worth mentioning that while Ayurveda can offer supportive measures, the effectiveness in dissolving a 13mm stone can be limited. You should also ensure any Ayurvedic remedies are not interacting with your existing medications like pithorin, lithobin and Liv 52 DS. It’s crucial to keep regular follow-ups with your healthcare provider to monitor the stone, as larger stones sometimes may require surgical intervention particularly if they start causing blockages or significant symptoms. Prioritizing overall well-being is essential, take care!

Dr. Anirudh Deshmukh
I am Dr Anurag Sharma, done with BAMS and also PGDHCM from IMS BHU, which honestly shaped a lot of how I approach things now in clinic. Working as a physician and also as an anorectal surgeon, I’ve got around 2 to 3 years of solid experience—tho like, every day still teaches me something new. I mainly focus on anorectal care (like piles, fissure, fistula stuff), plus I work with chronic pain cases too. Pain management is something I feel really invested in—seeing someone walk in barely managing and then leave with actual relief, that hits different. I’m not really the fancy talk type, but I try to keep my patients super informed, not just hand out meds n move on. Each case needs a bit of thinking—some need Ksharasutra or minor para surgical stuff, while others are just lifestyle tweaks and herbal meds. I like mixing the Ayurved principles with modern insights when I can, coz both sides got value really. It’s like—knowing when to go gentle and when to be precise. Right now I’m working hard on getting even better with surgical skills, but also want to help people get to me before surgery's the only option. Had few complicated cases where patience n consistency paid off—no shortcuts but yeah, worth it. The whole point for me is to actually listen first, like proper listen. People talk about symptoms but also say what they feel—and that helps in understanding more than any lab report sometimes. I just want to stay grounded in my work, and keep growing while doing what I can to make someone's pain bit less every day.

Dr. Nisha Bisht
I am an Ayurvedic physician with over 10 years of real, everyday experience—both in the clinical side and in managing systems behind the scenes. My journey started at Jiva Ayurveda in Faridabad, where I spent around 3 years juggling in-clinic and telemedicine consultations. That time taught me how different patient care can look when it’s just you, the person’s voice, and classical texts. No fancy setups—just your grasp on nidan and your ability to *listen properly*. Then I moved into a Medical Officer role at Uttaranchal Ayurved College in Dehradun, where I stayed for 7 years. It was more than just outpatient care—I was also involved in academic work, teaching students while continuing to treat patients. That phase really pushed me to re-read things with new eyes. You explain something to students one day and then end up applying it differently the next day on a patient. The loop between theory and practice became sharper there. Right now, I’m working as Deputy Medical Superintendent at Shivalik Hospital (part of the Shivalik Ayurved Institute in Dehradun). It’s a dual role—consulting patients *and* making sure the hospital ops run smooth. I get to ensure that the Ayurvedic care we deliver is both clinically sound and logistically strong. From patient case planning to supporting clinical staff and overseeing treatment quality—I keep an eye on all of it. Across all these years, my focus hasn’t changed much—I still work to blend classical Ayurved with today’s healthcare structure in a way that feels practical, safe and real. I don’t believe in overloading patients or selling “quick detox” ideas. I work on balancing doshas, rebuilding agni, planning proper chikitsa based on the person’s condition and constitution. Whether it’s lifestyle disorders, seasonal issues, chronic cases, or plain unexplained fatigue—I try to reach the cause before anything else. I still believe that Ayurved works best when it’s applied with clarity and humility—not overcomplicated or oversold. That’s the approach I carry into every patient room and every team meeting. It’s a long road, but it’s one I’m fully walking.

Dr. Atul Painuli
I am Vaidya Atul Painuli, currently working as an Ayurvedic Consultant at Patanjali Chikitsalaya, Delhi... been here a while now. My focus from the start—over 10+ yrs in this field—has been to stay true to what Ayurveda *actually* is, not just surface-level remedies or buzzwords. I’ve treated a wide mix of patients, from people battling chronic illnesses to those just looking to fix their lifestyle before it leads to disease (which is v underrated tbh). During these years, I kinda shaped my practice around the idea that one solution never fits all. Whether it’s diabetes, gut disorders, stress-related problems or hormone issues—everything goes back to the root, the *nidana*. I usually go with classic Ayurvedic meds, but I mix it up with Panchakarma, diet tweaks and daily routine correction, depending on the case. Most of the time, ppl don’t even realize how much their habits are feeding into the problem. It’s not just about herbs or massages... though those are important too. At Patanjali Chikitsalaya, I see patients from literally all walks of life—office-goers, elderly, even young kids sometimes. Everyone’s got something diff going on, which keeps me grounded. What I try to do is not just treat the symptoms but help ppl *see* what’s happening in their bodies and minds. Like Ayurveda says—if your digestion, sleep and emotions are off... then eventually health’s gonna wobble. I don’t promise quick results but I do stay with my patients through the process, adjusting things based on how they respond. That part makes a big difference I think. For me, Ayurveda isn’t a “last resort” kinda thing—it’s a system that can prevent 80% of the lifestyle diseases ppl suffer from today, if done right. My goal? Just to keep doing this in a way that feels real, grounded, and actually helps ppl—not overwhelm them with too much jargon or fear. Just practical, clean, honest healing.

Dr. Hemanshu Mehta
I am Dr. Hemanshu—right now a 2nd year MD scholar in Shalya Tantra, which basically means I’m training deep into the surgical side of Ayurveda. Not just cutting and stitching, btw, but the whole spectrum of para-surgical tools like Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma... these aren’t just traditional, they’re super precise when done right. I’m not saying I know everything yet (still learning every day honestly), but I do have solid exposure in handling chronic pain issues, muscle-joint disorders, and anorectal conditions like piles, fissures, fistulas—especially where modern treatments fall short or the patient’s tired of going through loops. During clinical rounds, I’ve seen how even simple Kshara application or well-timed Agnikarma can ease stuff like tennis elbow or planter fasciatis, fast. But more than the technique, I feel the key is figuring what matches the patient’s constitution n lifestyle... like one-size-never-fits-all here. I try to go beyond the complaint—looking into their ahar, sleep, stress levels, digestion, and just how they feel in general. That part gets missed often. I honestly believe healing isn’t just a “procedure done” kind of thing. I try not to rush—spend time on pre-procedure prep, post-care advice, what diet might help the tissue rebuild faster, whether they’re mentally up for it too. And no, I don’t ignore pathology reports either—modern diagnostic tools help me stay grounded while applying ancient methods. It’s not this vs that, it’s both, when needed. My aim, tbh, is to become the kind of Ayurvedic surgeon who doesn't just do the work but understands why that karma or technique is needed at that point in time. Every case teaches me something new, and that curiosity keeps me moving.

Dr. Deepali Goswami
I am Dr. Deepali Goswami, BAMS graduate n working mainly around women's health. Right now m running my own clinic where i treat all kind of gyne problems—from irregular periods to PCOD, white discharge, fertility-related issues, menopausal symptoms n lot more that affects everyday life of females. I usually try to keep the language simple while dealing with patients cause honestly half of them come already confused or like really scared of what's happening inside their body... and if I use too much technical terms it just make it worse. I’ve been practicing in this space for couple of years now—don’t remember the exact month, maybe two or three year back? but anyway, what matters is I’ve seen how many of these problems get ignored till they turn serious. That’s something I feel strongly about. My goal is to help women understand their symptoms early and explain how Ayurveda can help gently but properly, whether it’s hormonal stuff or pain or cycle issues. I use classic Ayurvedic concepts like dosha analysis, ritucharya, n yoni vyapad chikitsa wherever it fits, but sometimes modern lifestyle really needs to be factored in too. Like if someone working night shift, no point telling them to wake up at 5am and do abhyanga daily—it won’t work. I’m practical about it. Anyway, I try my best to create a space where women feel heard. Lot of them said nobody actually explained them what’s going on before. And that’s like the saddest part. I feel my biggest strength is really just listening n tailoring the treatment to her routine, diet n stress pattern. Some cases are harder of course... things don’t always go fast, esp when it’s been neglected for yrs. But then Ayurveda’s not magic. It takes a little time—but results feel real n lasting when done right.

Dr. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
ChatGPT said: I am Dr. Maitri, currently in my 2nd year of MD in Dravyaguna, and yeah, I run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli where I’ve been seeing patients for 2 years now. Honestly, what pulled me into this path deeper is how powerful herbs really are—when used right. Not just randomly mixing churnas but actually understanding their rasa, virya, vipaka etc. That’s kinda my zone, where textbook knowledge meets day-to-day case handling. My practice revolves around helping people with PCOD, acne, dandruff, back pain, stiffness in knees or joints that never seem to go away. And I don’t jump to giving a long list of medicines straight away—first I spend time figuring out their prakriti, their habits, food cycle, what triggers what… basically all the small stuff that gets missed. Then comes the plan—herbs (single or compound), some diet reshuffling, and always some lifestyle nudges. Sometimes they’re tiny, like sleep timing. Sometimes big like proper seasonal detox. Being into Dravyaguna helps me get into the depth of herbs more confidently. I don’t just look at the symptom—I think okay what guna will counter this? Should the drug be snigdha, ushna, tikta? Is there a reverse vipaka that’ll hurt the agni? I ask these questions before writing any combo. That’s made a huge diff in outcomes. Like I had this case of chronic urticaria that would flare up every week, and just tweaking the herbs based on sheetala vs ushna nature... helped calm the system in 3 weeks flat. Not magic, just logic. I also work with women who are struggling with hormonal swings, mood, delayed periods or even unexplained breakouts. When hormones go haywire, the skin shows, digestion slows, and mind gets foggy too. I keep my approach full-circle—cleansing, balancing, rejuvenating. No quick fixes, I tell them early on. What I’m hoping to do more of now is make Ayurveda feel practical. Not overwhelming. Just simple tools—ahara, vihara, aushadha—used consistently, with some trust in the body’s own healing. I’m still learning, still refining, but honestly, seeing people feel in control of their health again—that’s what keeps me rooted to this.

Dr. Isha Bhardwaj
I am someone who kinda learned early that medicine isn’t just about protocols or pills—like, it’s more about people, right? I did my BAMS with proper grounding in both classical Ayurveda and also the basics of modern med, which honestly helped me see both sides better. During internship, I got to work 6 months at Civil Hospital Sonipat—very clinical, very fast paced—and the other 6 at our own Ayurvedic hospital in the college. That mix showed me how blending traditional and integrative care isn't just theory, it actually works with real patients. After that I joined Kbir Wellness, an Ayurvedic aushdhalaya setup, where I dived into Naadi Pariksha—like really deep. It’s weird how much you can tell from pulse if you just listen right?? Doing regular consultations there sharpened my sense of prakriti, vikriti and how doshas show up subtle first. I used classical Ayurvedic texts to shape treatment plans, but always kept the patient’s routine, mental space and capacity in mind. Also I was part of some health camps around Karnal and Panipat—especially in govt schools and remote areas. That part really stays with me. You get to help ppl who dont usually have access to consistent care, and you start valuing simple awareness more than anything. I kinda think prevention should be a bigger focus in Ayurveda, like we keep talking about root cause but don’t always reach people before it gets worse. My whole method is pretty much built around that—root-cause treatment, yes, but also guiding patients on how to live with their body instead of fighting symptoms all the time. I rely a lot on traditional diagnostics like Naadi, but I mix that with practical therapies they can actually follow. No point in giving hard-to-do regimens if someone’s already overwhelmed. I keep it flexible. Most of my plans include dietary changes, natural formulations, lifestyle corrections and sometimes breathwork, daily rhythms and all that. I’m not here to just “treat illness”—what I really aim for is helping someone feel like they’ve got a handle on their own health again. That shift from just surviving to kinda thriving... that’s what I look for in every case.

Dr. Keerthana PV
I am an Ayurvedic doctor who kinda grew into this path naturally—my roots are in Kerala, and I did my internship at VPSV Ayurveda College in Kottakkal, which honestly was one of the most eye-opening stages of my life. That place isn’t just a college, it’s a deep well of real Ayurveda. The kind that’s lived, not just studied. During my time there, I didn’t just observe—I *practiced*. Diagnosing, treating, understanding the patient beyond their symptoms, all that hands-on stuff that textbooks don’t really teach. It’s where I learned the rhythm of classical Kerala Ayurveda, the art of pulse reading, and how Panchakarma ain’t just about detox but more about deep repair. I work closely with patients—always felt more like a guide than just a doctor tbh. Whether it's about fixing a chronic issue or preventing one from happening, I focus on the full picture. I give a lot of attention to diet (pathya), routine, mental clutter, and stress stuff. Counseling on these isn’t an ‘extra’—I see it as a part of healing. And not the preachy kind either, more like what works *for you*, your lifestyle, your space. Also yeah—I’m a certified Smrithi Meditation Consultant from Kottakkal Ayurveda School of Excellence. This kinda allowed me to mix mindfulness with medicine, which I find super important, especially in today’s distracted world. I integrate meditation where needed—some patients need a virechana, some just need to breathe better before they sleep. There’s no one-size-fits-all and I kinda like that part of my job the most. I don’t claim to know it all, but I listen deeply, treat with care, and stay true to the Ayurvedic principles I was trained in. My role feels less about ‘curing’ and more about nudging people back to their natural balance... it’s not quick or flashy, but it feels right.
