Depending on the type of gallbladder disease you have and the severity of your condition, your primary care physician may recommend one or more of the following treatments:   ● Pain medication. Many acute gallbladder conditions can be remedied or managed with prescription medication. Your healthcare provider will look at your overall health, your medical history, and your condition to determine which medication is right for you. ● Antibiotics. If you have a gallbladder issue that is the result of an infection, your healthcare provider will prescribe antibiotics to treat it. Depending on the severity of your condition, antibiotics may only be a short-term bridge to hold you over until you’re able to undergo surgery. ● Endoscopic intervention. Minor gallbladder issues may be able to be remedied using an endoscope. This type of intervention is the last line of defense before resorting to surgery. ● Surgery. This is the only permanent solution for persistent and/or chronic gallbladder disease. Gallbladder removal surgery is known as cholecystectomy and is very common.   If you suspect that you may have a gallbladder condition, or have recently been diagnosed with gallbladder disease, connect with us at Express Health Urgent Care.
