Will gallstones cause vomiting?

Although gallstones are a well-known disease, most people do not have a very clear understanding of the incidence of gallstones. Vomiting is very common in life, but the reasons for vomiting are different for each person. Some people find that they often want to vomit after suffering from gallstones. So can gallstone disease really cause a person to vomit?

Gallstones can cause vomiting. Patients with gallstones often have indigestion symptoms such as heartburn, belching, and abdominal distension. Smaller stones can often move and become lodged in the neck of the gallbladder, causing severe biliary colic accompanied by nausea and vomiting. If the position of the lodged stones changes and the obstruction is relieved, the biliary colic can be relieved. Acute attacks mostly occur after a full meal or greasy food. When lying flat, gallstones can easily slip into the cystic duct and cause obstruction, so some patients may have attacks at night.

Gallstones are a disease in which stones form in the gallbladder. It is a common disease in my country. The incidence rate increases with age, and the incidence rate is higher in women than in men. Under normal circumstances, gallbladder stones will not occur because there is a certain proportion of bile salts and lecithin in normal bile that keeps cholesterol dissolved and does not precipitate. Red and yellow urine due to gallstones indicates that the patient has developed obstructive jaundice and needs timely treatment. If the gallbladder is still functional and the heart and lung functions are fine, the gallbladder can be saved.

With the progress and development of science and technology, especially the exploration of various disadvantages after cholecystectomy, it was found that the gallbladder has extremely complex and important functions and is an indispensable and irreplaceable important digestive and immune organ. For this reason, cholecystectomy will bring many serious long-term side effects, which should be taken seriously by patients. It directly affects the patient's quality of life and even endangers the patient's life.

Gallstones, also known as cholelithiasis, refers to a disease in which stones occur in the biliary system, including the gallbladder or bile duct; biliary infection is a common disease. According to the site of onset, it is divided into gallbladder stones and bile duct stones. After the stones are formed in the gallbladder, they can irritate the gallbladder mucosa, which can not only cause chronic inflammation of the gallbladder, but also cause secondary infection when the stones are lodged in the gallbladder neck or cystic duct, leading to acute inflammation of the gallbladder. Due to the chronic irritation of gallbladder mucosa by stones, it may also lead to the occurrence of gallbladder cancer. It has been reported that the incidence of this type of gallbladder cancer can reach 1% to 2%.

Through the detailed introduction above, I believe everyone is already familiar with the causes of vomiting due to gallstones. For patients with serious conditions, we recommend going to a specialist hospital for a physical examination.
