Hello,
To the question "Is it okay to have frequent bowel movements and fatigue after gallbladder surgery?", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Your grandmother has just undergone cholecystectomy 2 days ago. , may experience digestive disorders after surgery or have side effects of drugs, or symptoms of other comorbidities (from the stomach - duodenum, or colon). Your grandmother needs to treat the symptoms (with anti-digestive drugs) and find other causes if any to treat.
If you still have questions about frequent defecation, fatigue in the body after gallbladder surgery, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
