Suggest Treatment For Uterine Infection And Appendicitis
Question: in the last 4 month my daughter has had kidney stones, Gall bladder removal, a miscarriage which led to a uterine infection now she has appendicitis. is there an underlying condition that may be contributing to such a rash of issue doctors could be overlooking?
Brief Answer:
May be connected but needs separate management
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and I understand your concern. Gall bladder removal due to gall stones might have played a role in creating appendicitis as bowel peristalsis is affected for couple of weeks after the procedure. And deranged movement of bowel makes terminal vessel of appendix more likely to get clogged and lead to appendicitis.
As far as kidney stones and miscarriages and infections are concerned there is likely correlation as stones are result of infections most of the time and every genital infecrion is a risk of abortion.
Nutshell although these symptoms might have led to one another need separate treatment and management. None of these issues are serious and easily resolvable. For example plenty of of fluids and garlic intake with cranberry juices and good toilet and coital habits will prevent uti and tu renal stones and nd once infections are taken care of pregnancy will be more likely to remain.
As far as gall bladder removal is concerned so advise your daughter to take small frequent meals avoid too much fatty products and dairy products to prevent gastric discomfort. Plenty of fibre and fluids will help the bowel. She may take bile salt pills for any belching now and then after consulting with her doctor.
I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and your daughter and don't forget to close the discussion please.
