Suggest Diet Food For Liver Pain
Hello,I am a woman, 65, height is 1609 cm, weight 62 kg. 3 years ago my gall bladder was removed, still i have liver pain from time to time. There are lots of herbal syrups for strengthening liver, but no one can tell whether these are ok after this operation. I try to keep a diet... Any advice, please?

Thank you for posting your query at HCM.
pain at right hypochondrium after removal of gall bladder.
Gall Bladder stores bile. "Bile" is very important and essential for
"digestion of Fats".
when gall bladder is removed, fat digestion is IMPAIRED.
a person without gall bladder, when eats a fat meal and/or fried rice,bread,meat- its difficult to digest and feels very uncomfortable.
,
advice:
- avoid high fat meal and fat diet altogether
- may take nexium or Pantocid 40mg once daily before breakfast
- small mealats at regular interval is better
- do NOT eat stomach full.
- no cold drinks and NO junk food
- eat more fruits especially those rich in vitamin C (citrus fruits)
- try to avoid drinking water at the end of a meal.
- you may get an abdominal ultrasound done to rule out an stone remnants in common bile duct
if any further questions, feel free to ask.
