पित्ते की पथरी का सही इलाज || Dr. Navneet Kaur|| Laproscopic
In this informative podcast episode, Dr. Navneet Kaur, Laparoscopic Surgeon, discusses the facts and myths surrounding gallbladder stones and their treatment.
She clearly explains that gallbladder stones cannot be dissolved with Ayurvedic or oral medications, despite common claims. Once a patient starts experiencing pain due to gallstones, surgical removal of the gallbladder is the only definitive treatment.
Dr. Kaur also highlights that at PIMS Hospital, patients who are unable to afford treatment can undergo surgery under the Ayushman Bharat scheme, making advanced laparoscopic care more accessible.
She further explains that delaying treatment can lead to serious complications such as:
Acute cholecystitis (severe inflammation of the gallbladder)
Rupture of the gallbladder
Stone migration into the Common Bile Duct (CBD)
Risk of jaundice
Laparoscopic surgery is a safe and minimally invasive procedure. Patients typically recover quickly and can resume normal daily activities soon after surgery.
Earlier, gallstones were commonly associated with the term “fatty, fertile, forty female.” However, Dr. Kaur points out that today gallstones are increasingly seen in teenagers as young as 13 years and are becoming common in male patients as well.
This episode aims to spread awareness about early diagnosis, proper medical treatment, and avoiding misinformation regarding gallbladder stones.
