Behaviors to avoid if you don’t want to risk gallstones
- Avoid and reduce the intake of foods high in fat and cholesterol to prevent accumulation in the body. Drinking a lot of alcoholic beverages also has an effect.
- Take care of your health and don’t let diabetes come to you. Because people with diabetes tend to have higher levels of triglycerides in their blood, and the gallbladder contracts less in people with high blood sugar, there is a risk of gallstones.
- Delicious in the mouth, hard on the stomach. Obesity is the cause of increased cholesterol in bile.
- Rapid weight loss in a short period of time can cause liver dysfunction. The liver will produce more cholesterol, the gallbladder will contract less, and the bile that remains inside can precipitate.
- Long-term use of birth control pills or hormone replacement therapy can increase cholesterol and reduce gallbladder motility.

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an endoscopic procedure to examine the bile duct and pancreas for abnormalities. The doctor inserts a camera through the esophagus, stomach, and upper small intestine to the opening of the bile duct in the small intestine. After that, a contrast medium is injected and an X-ray is taken.
In addition to diagnosis, ERCP also helps treat biliary tract or pancreatic duct obstruction by inserting a drainage tube for bile or pancreatic juice, and can treat biliary tract stones by immediately pulling them out during the endoscopy.
