Dr. Deepak Kumar, a renowned specialist at Ishapara Clinic, offers expert care for patients suffering from gallbladder stones. Gallstones are solid particles that form in the gallbladder, a small organ located beneath the liver. These stones can range in size from tiny grains to larger masses and are often made up of cholesterol or bilirubin.
The formation of gallstones can cause various symptoms, including intense pain in the upper right abdomen, nausea, vomiting, and digestive disturbances. These symptoms often occur after eating fatty foods and can be quite uncomfortable, sometimes leading to medical emergencies. If left untreated, gallstones can lead to complications like inflammation of the gallbladder (cholecystitis), pancreatitis, or blockages in the bile ducts, which can be life-threatening.
Dr. Kumar provides a thorough diagnosis of gallstones through advanced imaging techniques like ultrasound, CT scans, or MRI. Depending on the severity of the condition, treatment options vary. Non-surgical approaches, such as medications or lithotripsy, may be considered in some cases. However, in more severe cases, Dr. Kumar may recommend a cholecystectomy, a surgical procedure to remove the gallbladder.
At Ishapara Clinic, Dr. Kumar emphasizes a patient-centered approach, offering personalized treatment plans, pre-surgical consultations, and post-surgical care to ensure optimal recovery. His experience and dedication ensure that patients receive the highest quality of care for gallbladder stone management.
