I Had An Ultrasound Done On My Abdoman Can You
Question: i had an ultrasound done on my abdoman can you explain to me what these results mean and if i should worry about the gallbladder
Brief Answer:
Gallbladder is full of stones.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
I see the report of ultrasound you uploaded and it shows :
Normal liver without tumours
Gallbladder full of stones but without inflammation.
Normal common duct.
You have fat accumulation in pancreas.
Normal kidneys.
I think you should worry about gallbladder because it is full of stones. It doesn't need immediately surgery since the gallbladder doesn't have inflammation. If it had inflammation surgery was needed as soon as possible but now surgery can wait, yet it has to be considered.
Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Can stress cause me to get stones ?
Can stress cause me to get stones ?
Brief Answer:
Surgery is best way if inflammation starts.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and thank you for asking again.
I don't think stress can especially contribute to gallbladder stones, it is your body that produces them, most likely genetic.
If you don't have symptoms of pain and inflammation of gallbladder there is no need to remove them.
If you don't prefer surgery you you can lithotripsy a method which chops stones in small places to pass to bile ducts.
Also there are some medications, some recommend cinder vinegar or apple vinegar but are considered not much effective.

Best regards.

Brief Answer:
Keep low fat diet and lower alcohol intake.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and thank you for asking again.
There is not a certain exercise or food that may trigger inflammation.
You may try to keep a low fat diet, low cholesterol diet limiting diary products and red meat.
Inflammation may happen if stones pass at the common duct making the bile circulation difficult.
Also you may need to limit alcohol consumption.
