NJ Board-Certified Gallbladder Surgeon Ready to End Your Pain
Posted by: In: Blog Post, gallbladder surgery, GI surgery, hernia surgery, Horizon BCBS in network bariatric, Horizon BCBS in network surgeon 06 Nov 2023 0 comments Tags , , , , , , ,

Gallbladder disease, a common condition affecting nearly 20% of the population, often stems from gallstones that can lead to inflammation and excruciating pain. If you’re experiencing intermittent pain in the upper right abdomen, consult your primary care doctor for a gallbladder assessment, and don’t hesitate to reach out to New Jersey board-certified gallbladder surgeon Dr. Seun Sowemimo for further diagnosis and guidance.

Gallbladder Disease Symptoms

If you are suffering from stones in the gallbladder, you may experience intermittent pain in the right upper abdominal region. The pain typically starts after eating and may cause nausea, vomiting or bloating. Fever may or may not be present.

People who have severe symptoms from gallstones (usually diagnosed by an ultrasound) frequently have their gallbladder removed through a minimally invasive procedure called a laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

  • No hospital stay in most cases
  • Four tiny scars instead of one large abdominal scar
  • Minimal pain and no recurrence after surgery
  • Significantly faster recovery time
