Swelling Of The Stomach And Bloated. Gall Bladder Surgery And Hernia Done. Doctor Says Gall Bladder Ruptured. Problem?
My husband had gall bladder surgery and hernia, which the gall bladder had ruptured on Tuesday. Not two months earlier, he had 4 bi passes. anyway, from reading the discharge papers a scrip for an antibiotic may be given to you at the time of discharge if indicated but usually will have been given with the surgery. We were not given a script, so I assumed it was given in surgery. Looks to me like since the gall bladder had ruptured, they would keep him on antobotics. The dr told us the gall bladder was really nasty and he had to watch not to push anything into the ducts. The only problem my husband has had is the swelling of the stomach and bloated.

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M.. Forum.
Within a period of two months 4 by pass surgeries, gallbladder , hernia surgery.
Stomach swelling and bloating , very difficult to evaluate the reason of swelling of stomach .
However bloating may be due to hyper acidity and gastritis ( causes may be drugs, tension and stress related to trauma of surgery).
As at this platform it is very difficult to assess the case unless complete reports are not available.
Upload all reports of blood as well as ultrasound of abdomen.
Good luck.
