Some general info abt Gallbladder disease I'd like to share, sana makatulong
Symptoms- Pain caused by Gallbladder disease eg. GB Stone, is called Biliary Colic. This happens when the muscular walls of the gallbladder or bile duct ( tube that connects gallbladder to intestine) contratcs and puts pressure on an existing stone. THis pain is intense, sharp, colicky (parang pumupulso at kumikirot) and usually located at the right upper part of the abdomen. This type of pain is precipitated by eating a FATTY MEAL!! In the earlier stages, pwedeng hindi pain ang maramdaman, pwedeng abdominal discomfort lang, tulad ng dyspepsia ( kabag),vomiting, or increased flatulence ( utot ng utot). Pag malaki na ang stone at nakabara na, pwedeng mag-Jaundice, naninilaw ang balat, mata, dila at nagigiging light coloerd- ang stools.
What to do if you have any of these symptoms- Consult a doctor, magpaalam muna na kay sisig, burger, fried chicken, chicharon etc. Kung ang impression ng doctor ay gallbladder disease ang sakit mo, most likely he/she will request an abdominal ultrasound and blood tests to confirm diagnosis.
Treatment- If with frequent bouts of pain esp. extreme pain at namamaga pa yung gallbladder, SURGICAL ang approach. Pwedeng open surgery, (mas malaki ang hiwa, mas magatal ang healing time, this is the traditional procedure) or pwedeng Laparoscopic surgery (less invasive, halos 1 inch ang ang hiwa, mabilis ang healing/ recovery time, mas expensive hehe )Other doctors will choose NOT to operate kung incidental finding lang naman ang gallbladder stone at walang symptoms na nararamdaman.
Ang haba na pala ng sinulat ko, anyway hope this helps! Cheers!
