Gall Bladder Disease Symptoms - Do You Know the Signs?
Listed below are some of the common symptoms of gall bladder disease. Jaundice The gall bladder is an organ that holds bile in order to increase its concentration and delivers it when fat is consumed for easier digestion. While there is a long list of gall bladder symptoms, the most noticeable is jaundice. In case the skin becomes jaundiced then the first culprit that should be examined is the gall bladder and after that, the liver. Jaundiced skin is easily recognized by the yellow or orange coloring (depending on the type of jaundice). Sometimes the whites of the eyes will also turn yellowish. Jaundice occurs when the liver is unable to process and filter old blood and convert it into bile. This means a malfunction in the liver or a blockage in the gall bladder. Pain There are several kinds of pain that make a gall bladder symptom, some of these are listed below along with other associated qualities. Irregular pains in the center of upper abdomen or below the ribs to the right. The pain spreading to the right shoulder or sometimes between shoulder blades. Pain like this might often be associated with nausea or vomiting. Pain attacks resulting from gall bladder problems may last for a few hours before going away on their own. The severity and frequency of these attacks with be different each time. The pain can be easily triggered after eating foods rich in fat, such as chocolate, pastry, and cheese.
