Homeopathic treatment for Gall Bladder Stones
Gallstones (Cholelithiasis) is a small, hard crystalline mass formed abnormally in the gall bladder or bile ducts from bile pigments, cholesterol, also calcium salts. Gallstones can cause severe pain and blockage of the bile duct.
OVERVIEW
Generally, Gallstone formation is the most common disorder of the biliary tree and it is unusual for the gallbladder to be diseased in the absence of gallstones. Moreover, In developed countries, gallstones occur in 7% of males and 15% of females aged 18–65 years, with an overall prevalence of 11%. Individuals under 40 years there is a 3:1 female preponderance, whereas in the elderly the sex ratio is about equal.
In developed countries, the incidence of symptomatic gallstones appears to be increasing and they occur at an earlier age. Gallstones are less frequent in India, the Far East also Africa. There has been much debate over the role of diet in cholesterol gallstone disease; an increase in dietary cholesterol, fat, total calories and refined carbohydrate or lack of dietary fiber has been implicated. At present, the best data support an association between simple refined sugar in the diet and gallstones.
CAUSES
It’s not clear what causes gallstones to form. Doctors think gallstones may result when:
- Your bile contains too much cholesterol. Normally, your bile contains enough chemicals to dissolve the cholesterol excreted by your liver. But if your liver excretes more cholesterol than your bile can dissolve, the excess cholesterol may form into crystals and eventually into stones.
- Your bile contains too much bilirubin. Bilirubin is a chemical that’s produced when your body breaks down red blood cells. Certain conditions cause your liver to make too much bilirubin, including liver cirrhosis, biliary tract infections and certain blood disorders. The excess bilirubin contributes to gallstone formation.
Your gallbladder doesn’t empty correctly. If your gallbladder doesn’t empty completely or often enough, bile may become very concentrated, contributing to the formation of gallstones
Gallstones are conveniently classified into cholesterol or pigment stones, although the majority is of mixed composition. Cholesterol stones are most common in developed countries, whereas pigment stones are more frequent in developing countries. Gallstones contain varying quantities of calcium salts, including calcium bilirubinate, carbonate, phosphate also palmitate, which simper radio-opaque. All in all, Gallstone formation is multifactorial, toms are not now recognized as being caused by and the factors involved are related to the type of gallstone
