Query about creatine supplement
I am doing workout in gym for couple of years now and I have also taken creatine in the past with frequent breaks. And like this I was doing regular gym last year till August 2024. Then i left gym and workout for some reason in ending august and my body weight in august is around 69kg. Then in middle of September, one day I got into severe stomach pain and I'll get to know that i have multiple stones in my gallbladder and some stomach infection too. Then I consult a doctor and start getting treatment. And in October, my gallbladder surgery happens and the operation went well without any complication. And I take rest of 2 months in November and December. And from jan 1, 2025 I start light weight workout again and my body weight at that time is around 56kg and then continuing doing workout till today in june, my weight is 62kg. Now, I know creatine doesn't cause stones in gallbladder. But as I don't know the reason for gallbladder stone, I am confused to start again creatine or not.

Suggest medicine and cleaning procedure
My mother got hurt by the door latch. The bleeding wasn't stopping due to blood thinners. We showed her at AIIMS, they gave one stitch but there is swelling around the eye. AIIMS didn't give any medicine, nor did they check the file.
What medicine can we give for the swelling (considering she's a cardiac patient)? And should we give Augmentin or zifi 200?
How to clean wound and do dressing at home?

Anemia along with present gallstone
2 months ago I was diagnosed with anemia and I had incidental gallstone finding. Since I was a child, I had a bit of a digestive issue. I was even diagnosed with pcos. I had taken medication for heavy flow but it was of no use. So i resorted to exercise which led to eventual decrease in weight and only a year ago, my periods started being regular, every month. But, if it's gallbladder issue, I'm not supposed to be feeling hungry. Ever since I had taken my IFA tablet, I started getting hungry. My gall stone is 1.3cm ... I don't have pain abdomen, nor bloating.
