keywords: homeoapthy for cholecystitis, homeopathy for gallbladder, gallstone, gallbladder pain,

 

Many people experience recurrent gallbladder pain, often resorting to painkillers. Some who are advised by their doctor to undergo gallbladder removal surgery may feel uncertain about their next steps.


Gallbladder pain is a common symptom often inquired about at homeopathic pharmacies, whether in-store or over the phone.


In this blog, I will discuss commonly used homeopathic remedies for gallbladder pain.


Before I continue, let me explain the connection between the gallbladder and emotions.



#1 Function of the gallbladder


The gallbladder is a muscular, sac-shaped organ located below the liver and connected to it by a tube.


Bile, a bitter, green liquid that helps break down fat and aid in digestion, is produced in the liver and stored in the gallbladder. Bile acids in bile help emulsify fats, making them easier to digest.


When there isn't enough bile, digestion takes longer, causing queasiness and nausea.



#2 Causes of gallbladder pain


Cholecystitis is a condition in which the gallbladder becomes inflamed. Acute cholecystitis occurs when sudden pain arises and subsides within a short period, while chronic cholecystitis involves recurrent pain attacks.


The most common causes of cholecystitis are gallstones and acalculous cholecystitis.


Gallstones form when bile solidifies, creating small, hard lumps. This mass causes a very sharp pain as it is expelled from the body.


  • Cholesterol stone

  • Bilirubin stone

  • Other stones (such as calcium)


Acalculous cholecystitis is an inflammation that occurs when bile becomes muddy and the flow of bile is obstructed.



#3 Bitter feelings and undigested emotions


Insufficient bile can lead to slower digestion, and it is linked to difficulty in processing emotions, comprehending and assimilating new information, and feeling restricted in dealing with the situation. Bile, being bitter in taste, is connected to feelings of bitterness and internal anger.


Gallstones form when bile solidifies, and they are related to be related to unresolved and unexpressed emotions.


These stones develop gradually, representing the build-up of suppressed resentment and anger over time.


Gallstones can help you to soothe bitter and painful thoughts, allowing you to express displeasure when needed, and to offer yourself forgiveness by saying "It's okay to do this." It appears to be a bodily signal prompting introspection.


When you feel pain, it can be a signal from your body that you need to address past trauma.


Have you ever found it difficult to let go of stress or trauma from a negative past experience that you keep reliving in your mind?


Are there things that you keep buried inside without expressing them?


I suggest keeping a journal as one way to process and express your emotions and anger.

#6 Additional information


There are many natural ways to solve gallbladder problems. This is one of them. Dr. Lockie has mentioned that, in his experience, there are no issues with this method, but please consult your doctor before starting this treatment.



Dr. Andrew Lockie's Liver and Gallbladder flush


  1. In the five days leading up to the flush, eat a normal diet but drink as much fresh-pressed apple juice as possible

  2. On the day of the flush, eat a normal lunch but for supper have only citrus juice.

  3. At bedtime, blend 1/2 cup pure warm olive oil with 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice, and drink it.

  4. Go to bed and lie on your right side, with your knees pulled up to your chest for the first 30 minutes.

  5. When you open your bowels the next day, the gallstones will appear as irregular, gelatinous, green objects in the stools.

  6. If you are constipated, take 2 desertspoons Epsom Salts in warm water 4 hours before taking the oil/lemon mixture, and repeat the Epsom salts the next morning.


Please note :

There is a theoretical risk that flushing may cause stones to lidge in the bile duct rather than pass into the duodenum.

If the oil/lemon mixture can be kept down, and not vomiting up, flushing can be extremely effective.

Please check your GP before doing the flsh to make sure that your gallbladder is not inflamed.



#7 Conclusion...
