Hi,
Gallstones in the gall bladder can only be treated surgically. It means that if a patient has been suffering from gall stones, he or she should be undergone surgery sooner or later.
To relieve the belching, nausea and burning sensation, the medicines such as rabeprazole, domperidone etc may be tried but ultimately surgery would be the answer.
