Gallbladder Stone
Gallbladder Stone

Hi,

I am Dr. Nitin Jain, Surgical Gastroenterologist. Today I will talk about gallbladder stones. It is a very common problem all over the world. Everyone must have seen in and around this problem. But still, there are many doubts and myths about the gallbladder stones. When someone should get operated and do they require an operation? No, I don't think so. Not all patients require this operation. But that doesn't mean that no one should get operated in spite of having gallbladder stones. So, it is a balanced decision. There is no medicine for gallbladder stones. Is there anything by which we can remove the stones?

No. So, gallbladder stones cause pain in the abdomen, the problem indigestion, it can also cause gangrene, jaundice, pancreatitis which can be serious and life-threatening. So, when this complication occurs, someone will definitely require an operation for gallbladder stones. But should anyone wait till these complications happened? No. Gallbladder stones are a very common problem in India, especially in North India. Even cancer of the gallbladder is very common. So, the patient is coming from North India, I will always advise operation because they still have 30-40 years of life to go. So, rather than experience severe complications, it is always better to get operated when someone is fit and healthy.

Gallbladder stones are not going to get disappear by any kind of medicines or anything. Gallbladder stones are metabolic problems. There are multiple factors which are involved in this problem. When someone has gallbladder stones, he/she should consult. You should not ignore. Otherwise, you can land up in a big serious problem. Because I do see patients where they come in an emergency with a serious problem like acute pancreatitis and gangrene of gallbladder. So, I am not advising to go for an operation. But there are patients who really require help and consultation and operation. Nowadays gallbladder stones can be treated with laparoscopy which is keyhole surgery.

It can be done in daycare sit and a very short stay in the hospital. When the patient is healthy and fit, surgery can be done very peacefully without any complications. We have to balance everything then only we should take a call for gallbladder stones. So, it is not that it is not harmful. Because if it will not be treated, so many complications can arise. So, it is totally up to you whether you want to have the complications or not. So, I would advise to consult a Dr and a surgeon and take a balanced decision rather than just ignoring or listening to anyone. Because of gallbladder stones, symptoms can be life-threatening. So, I hope you have understood whatever I have spoken.

Thank You!


Jaundice
Jaundice

Hello all!

I am Dr. Nitin Jain. I am practicing as a gastro-intestinal hepatobiliary and laparoscopic surgeon in Mumbai for 17 years. I am working with many corporate hospitals like- Bombay Hospital, Hiranandani Hospital, Holy spirit hospital and I have my own clinic and set up in Powai. I am going to talk about Jaundice which is very common and prevalent problem all over the world. In my practice, I see many jaundice patients who have taken treatment from their local country remedies or some home remedies which is not the right solution for jaundice. When I talk about jaundice, jaundice means yellow eyes, yellow skin or very high color urine. Jaundice can be because of many causes.

At times it is just self-limiting even if you don't take any medicine it is curable. At times it may not respond to any medicine that might be because of surgical problem. So, in that case, you have to see doctor immediately. I would advise all who have jaundice or who have patients of jaundice they should consult the doctor immediately. Jaundice can be because of medical problem or surgical problem. In medical problem most common being acute viral hepatitis. Most of the time it is self-limiting and self curable by itself. Like hepatitis A B C can be self-limiting, jaundice with fever can be serious problem. In that case you have to consult a doctor. Jaundice can be because of surgical causes like gallbladder stones, bile duct stone, tumors, narrowing stricture or at times liver failure, cirrhosis or at very rare cases it can be because of drug-induced or drug which are taken for long time that can cause jaundice.

Jaundice is really a serious problem which no one should neglect. At times it can be because of very rare but benign conditions when someone has biochemical or high bilirubin or yellow eyes but there is no treatment like syndromes where only bilirubin is raised. So whatever may be the cause of jaundice, whenever someone has jaundice he or she has to consult a doctor. Most of the times it is curable, treatable if found in time. In my practice, I have seen patients who come in the advanced stage. 30-40% have taken treatment from XYZ, from the country made, from some sadhus, babas, dadi and nani. These are the patients where there is very little to offer and these patients suffer long. So whenever Jaundice is there, someone has to really consult doctor immediately. Most of the times if detected or investigated in time, 90% of the time it is treatable/curable and the problem can be solved. I hope you all have understood.

Thank you for listening to me!
