Suggest Treatment For Isolated Pain In The Gall Bladder And Rib Cage

just had my annual and blood panel...Can slightly elevated liver enzymes and a slightly lower white blood cell count be caused by gall bladder issues? I have isolated pain in one spot. although mild on the right side under my rib cage. Intermittent pain but more in the last few weeks.

Hi thanks for asking question.
I can understand your concern.

Your liver enzymes are elevated.So you can have fatty liver.USG is useful for it.

Second it could be case of hepatitis . For which viral markers done along with USG.

Third yes gall stones can lead to obstructive jaundice and because of that liver enzymes can be elevated.USG will be helpful.It may reveal cholangitis or dilated bile duct Luke picture and treated accordingly.

So with ultrasound your picture will be clear and treated accordingly.

Meanwhile take low fat diet.
Drink more water with fruit juices.

Green leafy veg useful.

If fatty liver and hepatitis present you can take cumine seed or licorice with water that is good herbal remedy.

Wish you good health.

Regards;
Dr.parth
