Understanding the cause of gallbladder disease will help you with preventing or treating it. When the bile fluids in the gallbladder become over-saturated with cholesterol, precipitation of the cholesterol into solid crystals begins, and then gradually accumulate to form stones of variable sizes. Avoid surgery whenever possible. Several recent studies have addressed the issue of whether or not asymptomatic gallstones should be removed.
People suffering pain from gallbladder disease are most likely to visit hospital operating suites.
Well-meaning doctors will sometimes frighten patients into accepting surgery by emphasizing the possibility of developing cancer of the gallbladder from the constant irritation produced by the gallstones. Actually the risk of cancer from this cause is insignificant. Don't be fooled into submitting to the surgeon's knife for the removal of Asymptomatic gallstones because of a doctor-induced cancer phobia. Actually, very rarely do small stones, even those that are being dissolved away through the use of drugs, become trapped in the duct to block it. If you have gallstones, then alter your diet today.
