Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, absolutely. The liver continues to produce bile, which flows directly into the small intestine to digest food. The gallbladder only acts as a storage reservoir; removing it does not impair long-term health or life expectancy.
No. Medicines cannot reliably dissolve gallbladder stones, and even if stones break, they can slip into the bile duct and cause jaundice or severe pancreatitis. Surgical removal of the gallbladder is the only definitive cure.
Most patients are discharged within 24 to 48 hours and can comfortably resume desk work and normal walking in 4 to 6 days.
No permanent dietary restriction is required. During the first 2-3 weeks post-surgery, light and low-fat meals are recommended while your digestive system adapts, after which you can enjoy a standard balanced diet.
