Stones in Gallbladder is one of the most common disorders. As per a study, older women and men with diabetes were found to have a high risk of Gall Bladder Diseases. Environmental conditions and genetic factors are also one of the causes of gall bladder stones. In some cases, gallbladder stone surgery becomes imperative.
What are the gallbladder stones?
The Gallbladder stones are generally the deposits of cholesterol, bile, and calcium salts which accumulate in the form of stones in a person’s gall bladder.
Symptoms of gallbladder stone
In 70% of cases, there are no symptoms for gallstone. Medical treatment should be sought only in the case of visible symptoms of gallstones such as:
- Severe abdominal pain
- Severe neck and back pain
- Pain increases after consuming fatty food
- Jaundice
- Fever
Tips before considering Gallbladder stone surgery
- If you can manage mild and rare gallstone pain, and if the doctor also believes that surgery is not needed and there will be no serious complications in the case of no surgery, then you can avoid the gallbladder stone surgery.
- You may wait for a repeated pain gallstone attack, if you have had just one attack of gallstone pain. 1 out of 3 people with gallstones have only one pain attack and do not have another one.
- In the case of repeated attacks and severe pain, surgery is the best option for you.
- Search for the best gallbladder specialist surgeon who can get your stone removed with minimally invasive technique.
- Do not worry much about the removal of the gall bladder. The body works well without it. You might have to bring some changes in your eating pattern because digestion after gallbladder removal becomes a tad slow.
