Home Remedies For Gall Bladder Disorders

December 10, 2009

What are Gall Bladder Disorders?

The important gall bladder related diseases or disorders are Cholelithiasis and Cholecystitis. Generally, Cholecystitis leads to Cholelithiasis. Cholelithiasis refers to a condition in which there is the presence of Gallstones in the Gall Bladder. As the name suggest, a Gallstone is a stone-like crystal deposit that forms in the Gall Bladder. Different Gallstones are of different sized and different chemical compositions. Most of them are composed of cholesterol. The Gall Bladder stores bile salts which are required for the proper digestion of fatty acids. Women are more prone to develop Gallstones as compared to men. These disorder may be treated through surgical or on surgical methods. Fewer people are aware of the fact that natural home remedies for Gall Bladder Disorders are highly beneficial in this regard.

Cholecystitis refers to an inflammation of the Gall Bladder. This disease is also associated with Gallstones. Usually, the blockage of Cystic duct due to Gallstones leads to such an inflammation. Cystic duct is responsible for carrying the bile from the Gall Bladder. In certain rare cases, Cholecystitis developed in the absence of Galllstones. Prolonged inflammation of the Gall Bladder results in Chronic Cholecystitis. Other Gall Bladder Disorders include Gallstone Ileus, Choledocholithiasis and Cholesterolosis. In Choledocholithiasis, Gallstones prevent the bile from flowing into the first portion of the small intestine and cause problems.

Causes of Gall Bladder Disorders

Gallstones are the root cause of many Gall Bladder Disorders. Key factors causing Gallstones are Statis, that is, prolonged bile retention within the Gall Bladder, infections and excess amounts of cholesterol, calcium or bilirubin in the bile. Diseases like Diabetes, Celiac Disease, Malignant Tumors, and Pancreatitis and high levels of estrogen, insulin, or cholesterolcan tend to increase the risks of developing Gallstones. Pregnancy or the use of birth control pills slows down the activities of the Gall Bladder thereby enhancing the risks of Gallstone formation. Obesity, sudden weight loss, a high-fat and low-fiber diet, alcoholism and smoking may lead to the development of Gallstones. Gall Bladder Disorders, especially Gallstones tend to run in families.

The risks of developing Acute Cholecystitis increase manifold after major surgeries, fasting for long periods of time, serious injuries, sepsis, major burns, prolonged intravenous feedings and immune system related deficiencies. When these gallstones or even a single Gallstone blocks the entrance to the large intestine, it
causes Gallstone Ileus. Deposits of cholesterol crystals in the lining of the Gall Bladder lead to Cholesterolosis.

Symptoms of Gall Bladder Disorders

Gall Bladder Disorders are often characterized by Gallstone attacks. Such attacks are accompanied by a sharp pain beginning in the abdomen and moving to the back, chest (on the right side), or the area between the shoulders. Other symptoms include inability to digest fatty foods, uneasiness, nausea, vomiting, gas and indigestion. It may also be accompanied by low grade fever, chills and sweating. Generally, a Gallstone attack persists for a period of 1-4 hours. Gallstones are sometimes referred to as ‘silent stones’ in cases where the patients do not suffer from these symptoms. Such Gallstones do not interfere with the functioning of the gall bladder, liver, or pancreas.
