The cost may also include the cost of sedation or anesthesia during the procedure. Finally, the cost may also include the cost of any necessary follow-up care or treatment.

Q: What is the outcome for patients with bile duct obstruction treatment after gallbladder removal?

The outcome for patients with bile duct obstruction after gallbladder removal can vary depending on the obstruction's cause, severity, and duration. Medication: In some cases, a bile duct obstruction after gallbladder removal can be treated with a combination of medications, such as antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs, to help relieve symptoms and clear the blockage. ERCP: In more severe cases, a procedure known as an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) may be needed to remove the obstruction. Surgery: In specific cases, including cancerous growth, surgery may involve removal of the blocked section of the duct or, in severe cases, rerouting of the bile ducts through a procedure called a Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy.

Q: Is a blocked bile duct an emergency?

Bile duct blockage can cause life-threatening infections if not treated in time. Eventually, they can lead to chronic liver diseases like biliary cirrhosis.

Q: Is the procedure for removing gallbladder while pregnant safe?

Recent advancements in laparoscopic surgery have made the procedure less invasive and have a shorter recovery time, which can decrease the risk of complications for both the mother and the baby. Also, this type of surgery can be performed with regional anesthesia, which is considered safer than general anesthesia during pregnancy.

If you are worried, make sure to talk to a gastroenterologist.

Why I have abdominal pain

Female | 14

Abdominal discomfort can occur due to various reasons. It may stem from consumed food items or gastrointestinal distress. If localized in the lower right area, appendicitis could be the culprit, requiring immediate medical attention. Alternatively, gas accumulation or constipation can also trigger such pain. Consuming smaller portions, staying hydrated, and engaging in physical movement may alleviate gas or constipation-related discomfort. However, if the pain persists or intensifies, visit a gastroenterologist.

Pain in lower left abdomen when sitting but no pain when standing or laying down

Female | 25

You have discomfort in your belly's left lower area. This happens when sitting down. Little pouches in your colon may be inflamed; that's diverticulitis. Other signs: bloating, hard or loose stools. To ease the hurt, eat foods high in fiber and drink lots of water. But, if pain persists, it's wise to consult a gastroenterologist.

Male | 47

You have gallstones, and your bilirubin levels are high. Gallstones can cause belly pain, and high bilirubin occurs when the liver doesn't break down red blood cells properly. To lower bilirubin, eat balanced meals, avoid fatty foods, and stay hydrated. Medications can also help. While removing gallstones without surgery is difficult, endoscopic procedures can break them down. Talk to a gastroenterologist to find the best treatment option for you.

Hello doctor good morning, I'm Rajesh Kumar from West Bengal. Doctor I'm suffering from piles during 15 days I use medicine with help of doctor consultation. I feel very pain on anus area. I nothing understood what I do. At the anus area only pain happened not bleeding aa another thing.

Male | 26

It appears that you are suffering from pain in the anus area. This can be a common sign of piles, also known as hemorrhoids. Piles can be the reason for unpleasant sensations and pain, particularly when passing stool. The main reason for piles is the raised pressure in the blood vessels near the anus. To help with the pain, you can first, soak in hot water baths, apply over-the-counter creams, and, eat high-fiber foods to prevent straining while passing stool. If the pain continues or gets worse, it's time to talk with a gastroenterologist about other treatment options.

Female | 30

There are several possible causes for this, including eating too much or too quickly, or certain foods not reacting well with your stomach. Do you find that it gets worse with particular foods? Try having smaller meals at a slower pace and see if there’s anything that consistently triggers your stomach ache. If the problem persists, it would be wise to consult a gastroenterologist.

Hi doctor, um, good evening. I'm coming to you today contacting a clinic with an inquiry. (0:07) So I suffer from very bad anxiety and I recently got a therapist which was only like two months (0:14) ago or so. So within that time frame I've had blood tests done, total blood count and all of (0:21) that and it turns out that I'm not anemic. So within I would say like the past weeks or within (0:27) you know the past year or so occasionally I would get like you know stomach symptoms like diarrhea (0:32) or whatever which my doctor thought was probably IBS and I would get the occasional blood or whatever (0:37) when I strain and stuff like that. So um within the past month I was stressing myself out non-stop (0:45) like I'm constantly stressing but I'm hearing people saying now that I lost a bit of weight (0:50) but my stomach, weight, my legs, my whole body they're the same. I just seem to have lost weight (0:56) within my arms and it's making me freak out because recently today I had a bowel movement and (1:02) I saw the tad little bit of blood again and I've been constantly thinking that I have collateral (1:08) aka colon cancer at the age of 22 and it's really freaking me out and I seem to just cannot (1:15) stop thinking that I have that doctor and it's making my anxiety bad and it's giving me suicidal (1:21) thoughts due to the fact that I think that I have this cancer.

Male | 22

It seems you're worried about your health, especially colon cancer. Having that cancer at 22 is rare. Your arm weight loss could be from anxiety causing muscle loss. Seeing a therapist is good, but talking to your doctor about your worries may help reassure you. Take slow, deep breaths and try relaxation methods to ease anxiety.

Male | 33

Loss of appetite can be the result of various reasons such as stress, emotional problems, hormone changes, or other health issues. The symptoms might be excessive tiredness, mood swings, or feeling uncomfortable. It is very important to find the original causes, and this often means checking in with health professionals. Have a good time by getting food that is of high quality which you eat during the day and incorporating exercise into your daily routine will greatly maneuver you out of the problem. Moreover, make sure you drink enough water. In case dizziness or nausea persists, you should consult a gastroenterologist for personalized treatment

Stomach pain upper stomach light pain when sitting but when sleep more pin

Female | 18

You are suffering from stomach ache. Pain that is mostly up high and feels light when sitting but gets worse when you lie down can be due to acid reflux. This happens when the acid from your stomach goes back up into your food pipe. Do not put off spicy or fatty food items, eat smaller portions, and do not lie down immediately after finishing your meal. If the pain endures, the next step would be to consult a gastroenterologist.

My name is Sylvia I started experiencing sharp pain on the lower left side of my stomach which radiated to the hip it eased abit after taking some painkillers but I'm also getting nausea could you please advice

Female | 25

It sounds as if you've developed some lower left abdominal pain with a prospect of the pain spreading to your hip. Painkillers are lessening the pain to a small extent, however, you're feeling nauseated too. These symptoms can be the signs of an issue in your digestive system like gas, constipation, or even a stomach virus. It's necessary to drink water, eat light foods, and sleep. If there is no improvement, the best thing to do is have a wellness check-up with a gastroenterologist who can properly diagnose and treat you.
