Signs of Gallbladder and Bile Duct Issues:

There are a plethora of things that may go wrong with the gallbladder and bile duct, but here are a few of the common signs that you may need to seek a specialist's care. 

• Pain in the upper right abdominal area. This pain may come on suddenly and feel unbearable, which may represent an urgent situation, or it may come sporadically and change with diet and lifestyle.
• Pain between shoulder blades, both sudden or recurring. This pain is often described as stabbing and sharp.
• Nausea and/or extreme heartburn, especially after eating certain foods or a large meal.
• Fever and chills along with the above pain locations.
• In extreme cases, yellowing of the eyes and skin.

The gallbladder and bile ducts can cause a great deal of pain and discomfort when things go awry with them. Sometimes the pain builds slowly over time with clear triggers, but often it can come as an "attack" and truly feel like a medical emergency due to the amount of pain. In some cases, it may be required to remove a person's gallbladder. Surprisingly, the human body can function normally without this organ with some dietary adjustments. A bile duct and gallbladder specialist can help if you have any of the above symptoms in Margate, FL. No one should have to suffer from recurring pain, and leaving gallstones or gallbladder conditions untreated can lead to much more than chronic pain, it can be life-threatening.
