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.

The issues could be connected to the medicine you were given. In truth, sometimes Escitalopram, also called Nexito, is capable of causing side effects such as tingling sensation and sleeping disorders to the patients who take it. Inform the doctor and be involved in the treatment process.

Female | 21

You've got an upset stomach from that Aciclovir dispersible tablet you took. Tummy aches and weakness can happen with that medicine. It might be irritating your belly. Try eating before taking it to avoid this issue. Drinking lots of water can also help soothe things. But, if the problem persists, definitely let your doctor know about it.

I am 18 years old lately I have been having some burnt in my stomach and making me feel I want to vomit and I had sex for the first time which I don't know if that's why I am feeling pains and I feel very tired and uncomfortable pls I want to know what's wrong with me and so many pimples on my face pls help me let me know and I have been visiting toilet frequently

Female | 18

It appears that you are possibly facing some tummy trouble perhaps somewhat associated with your very first sexual encounter but not as a direct result of it. The aching, vomiting, tiredness, and frequent bathroom visits might be due to a tummy bug or infection. The zit on your skin could likely be caused by hormonal variations. You must take a lot of water, get enough rest, and eat plain easy-to-digest items like bread or rice. If the situation does not change please visit a gastroenterologist.

25 year old female last night I started experiencing sharp pain on the lower right side of my stomach near pelvic area that radiates down to my hip and leg and now I'm also feeling nausea

Female | 25

You might be dealing with appendicitis. This is the case when a small part of your belly, known as the appendix, gets enlarged and causes severe pain. The pain might be displaced to your hip and leg. Nausea is a typical symptom as well. You must visit a gastroenterologist. The surgical method is warranted in a majority of cases to get rid of the inflamed appendix and help you be in a good state of health again.

hello doctor, i’ve recently came down with a fever and a headache in the past few days that has been resolved now. but i have a new set of symptoms, whenever i am stood up i cannot stop belching/burping. this does not happen when i am lying down, however, my stomach and abdomen rumble a lot when i’m lying down. my only other symptom is constipation

Male | 15

The symptoms you are showing, such as wheezing standing up, a rumble in the stomach while lying down, and constipation, could be a sign of IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome). This can be produced by stress, certain meals, or even hormonal shifts. Maintaining a food diary and doing deep breathing exercises may help you relax. It's also important to drink water and consume a diet rich in fiber which will help constipation. If your symptoms persist, do not hesitate to contact a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and guidance. Take care!

You would want to consult a general physician or a primary care doctor for the symptoms you mentioned. They'll conduct an initial assessment, ask about your medical history, perform a physical examination, and may order some tests if necessary to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms.

Based on their evaluation, the primary care doctor may refer you to a gastroenterologist if they suspect a specific gastrointestinal condition or if further specialized care is required.

Hello my name is Mohammad my mom died from colon cancer and my aunt father side died from lung cancer and recently I am having black ( I mean like really black) poop I haven’t had any iron supplements and I’m not having abdominal pain but I lost a lot of weight in 2-3 months I hardly ever go to ???? and when I go I have very stiff black poop I don’t have eagerness for food and I was very very harmed mentally for my moms lost that I almost had days taking 1.5 kg of ambient (1510tablets10gr) I am also studying dentistry so if you speak in medical terms I would probably understand.

Male | 23

Do not underestimate how black stool points to possible internal bleeding of your digestive system, nor your symptoms of losing weight and having no appetite. This points to the start of a severe health issue that would be more likely benign than malignant. Besides, it's best to go through the colon and intestine diagnostics first as well as some other medical tests.

You may have a fissure in your anus which could hurt a lot and make you uncomfortable. A fissure is like a tiny cut on the skin around your bottom. It is caused by passing hard stool, running stomach, or diseases like Crohn`s disease. Symptoms may include pain when passing stool and sometimes even bleeding. To alleviate these symptoms, try taking more fiber in your diet, drinking enough water daily, and applying creams to soothe the affected area.

This type of pain may occur due to many reasons like gas or a digestive problem. The fact that it disappears after taking the medicine means that it is related to the stomach.

Bleeding from anus No lumps Not sore Stomach is fine

Female | 30

Presence of blood in your stool but without the presence of lumps or pain can be a result of a condition called hemorrhoids. These are swollen blood vessels inside your rectum that may bleed when you have bowel movements. A much less common cause could also result from anal fissure or an infection. Diet should be fiber-based and patients should always have their bottom cleaned. If it is a matter of persisting hemorrhoids, then you must urgently see a gastroenterologist for proper advice.

I feel hungry but can't eat.

Male | 59

Feeling hungry but not being able to eat can be tough. In this case, if stress or worry occupies your mind, it is difficult to have an appetite. Feeling sick and having tummy troubles can also lead to this. It's essential to try activities for fun, such as drinking ginger tea or taking a gentle walk, to help your tummy relax. If your tummy troubles continue, talk to a gastroenterologist about other options.

From your symptom, you may have a GI infection. One can consult a gastroenterologist or any general physician to receive proper diagnosis and treatment. For now, ensure that you stay hydrated and avoid the spicy food. In case the symptoms aggravate, see a doctor quickly.
