Smoking Weed After Gallbladder Removal

Can I smoke weed 3 weeks after gallbladder removal?

Dr. Samrat Jankar

Surgical Gastroenterologist

Answered on 14th Aug '24

After gallbladder surgery, it's important to focus on taking care of yourself. While it might be tempting, it's best to avoid using cannabis during your recovery. The compounds in marijuana could slow down your healing and make you feel worse. Instead, stay hydrated, eat a healthy diet, and follow your doctor's advice to recover well.

I'm worried about my 40-year-old sister who had gastric bypass surgery. Can you provide insights into what to expect or look out for in terms of health issues and care 15 years after gastric bypass?

Female | 40

After gastric bypass surgery, it is necessary to monitor the condition of your sister. She might develop complications like malnutrition, dumping syndrome and hernias. It is advisable to see a gastroenterologist who practices bariatric surgery for regular appointments and tips on healthy living.

My stomach is having gas bubble

Male | 48

Okay you can try a few remedies to find relief. Drink warm liquids like herbal teas or warm water with lemon to relax the stomach muscles. Avoid carbonated drinks and chewing gum as they can contribute to gas production.

MY sister underwent a laparoscopic surgery to remove gall bladder due to stone and found appendix also , was also removed. Now its been 2 months and she is experiencing weight loss and less appetite. when checked blood found SGOT-72.54 AND SGPT 137.47, what is the reason

Female | 27

Your sister's we­ight loss and reduced appetite­ after surgery are normal. He­r body is adjusting to the change. High SGOT and SGPT blood levels indicate live­r inflammation, which is common post-surgery. This also affects appetite­. Follow up with her doctor. They may recomme­nd diet changes or medicine­s to help her re­cover and regain appetite­.

I’m 18 I’ve been having some bowel issues. Around 2 years ago, I had a big IBS flare up (according to my doctor) that lasted for a while. Just recently, after not having much problems since, I’ve been feeling constipated. This occurred after being under some stress from a couple school tests (though, to me, the stress didn’t seem that much different from other stresses I’ve had). I would feel the urge to poop, but very little would come out (even though I felt like there’s a big piece that needed to). When I would push any harder, I could maybe get some more small pieces to come out, though it would burn and be discomforting. This would go on for a while until recently I would have some mild diarrhea. I know this is a bad habit, but I did some reading on the internet and learned that I may be having overflow diarrhea. I still have the feeling of being backed up (that a big piece of poop needs to come out) and nauseous - however not much abdominal pain (yet). I just tried a suppository and unfortunately it led to nothing but some mucus coming out. I’ve been anxious about this, however I’ve started to wonder: Am I getting bowel issues because I’m nervous, or am I nervous because I’m getting bowel issues. I’m here because I’m wondering if all this is an IBS episode, or if this is something more urgent. Both my parents believe it’s nothing but IBS, however, I am a little concerned that it could be something more dire. I’ve been trying to keep my mind off of it, however it is quite hard after knowing a suppository wouldn’t work.

I understand your concerns. The symptoms you're describing could be related to stress-triggered IBS, but it's essential to rule out other potential causes. Persistent changes in bowel habits, especially with discomfort and anxiety, warrant a visit to a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation. They can determine the cause and provide appropriate guidance for management. Don't hesitate to discuss your symptoms openly with your doctor for accurate diagnosis and peace of mind.

Nausea feeling from past 2 days. Since last night vomitting after eating anything. Feeling like Stomach is bloated.

Male | 27

Experiencing nausea, vomiting after eating, and stomach bloating for two days requires immediate medical attention. These symptoms could indicate various conditions such as gastroenteritis, food poisoning, gastritis, or other gastrointestinal issues.

I have been having discomfort in my right lower abdomen for 3 weeks. When it started, I woke up with abdominal pain and went to breakfast, but during it I could barely keep from throwing up. All that day I felt a little nauseous and my stomach hurt on sudden movements (also my stomach made noises). The next day the pain became more constant and intensified. I could not straighten up without pain in my lower abdomen. That day I went to the doctor with a suspicion of appendicitis. I was palpated, but was told that it was not clear exactly and told to come back the next day. The next day the pain was less, the doctor palpated me again and I had an ultrasound. The ultrasound showed that I had an enlarged kidney bowl and lymph nodes. I was admitted to the hospital but did not know which department (first they wanted to put me in urology but in the end they put me in the infectious diseases department for some reason). Also, the blood tests when I first came to the hospital had elevated white blood cells. I was discharged after 2 days and have been home for 3 weeks now (I have been on a diet and drinking 1.5 litres of water a day not counting tea) but the discomfort in my right lower abdomen sometimes returns

Vomiting blood indicates bleeding in your stomach or esophagus. Possible causes include stomach ulcers, esophageal tears, or excessive vomiting. Symptoms may include weakness, dizziness, and stomach pain. Seek emergency treatment immediately for tests and proper care. Do not eat or drink until you are examined.

This is why a high dosage of these drugs can make your health worse. Signs you may have different from this could be severe dizziness, drowsiness, and abdominal pain. You should call emergency services and seek help immediately. You must get medical assistance promptly to prevent any further problems.

I m 40 years old. I m suffering from fissure in anus. It gives me pain

Male | 40

Fissures are little rips in the skin around the anus. Passing hard stools, diarrhea, or inflammatory bowel disease can cause them. To heal the fissure, drink plenty of water, eat foods high in fiber, and use stool softeners. You might need creams or ointments too so that it does not hurt as much and heals faster.

Female | 22

The signs you mentioned suggest you are experiencing gastric distress, which happens when the stomach can't process food properly. This often leads to gas buildup and causes discomfort. It's not related to a lack of vitamins. Try eating smaller portions, avoid spicy and oily foods, and chew your food slowly. Drinking a glass of warm water can also help you feel better.

I am suffering from IBS and losing my hair plz stop my hair fall I think it's nutrition observation problem

Male | 26

IBS and hair loss frustrate you. Hair loss with IBS could mean poor nutrient absorption. IBS brings stomach pain, bloating, and bowel habit shifts. Focus on die­t rich in vitamins and minerals for hair growth: iron, zinc, and biotin. See a he­althcare provider about suppleme­nts for nutrients.
