What causes small gallbladder polyps?

Patients with gallbladder polyps should pay attention to abstaining from alcohol and alcoholic beverages.

Gallbladder polyps are a general term for raised lesions in the gallbladder cavity. The cause of gallbladder polyps is not clear, most gallbladder polyps do not have any uncomfortable symptoms, and it is often found during B-ultrasound examination, and a small number of patients can have symptoms such as right upper quadrant pain, nausea and vomiting, and loss of appetite. After ruling out gastroduodenal and other biliary tract disorders, gallbladder polyps that cause discomfort such as pain may be operated on, regardless of size or size**.

Surgery should still be considered in asymptomatic patients with gallbladder polyps if: a single polyp lesion greater than 10 mm in diameter; Over 50 years of age, serial ultrasound examination reveals that polyps are increasing in size; Adenomatous polyps or wide basal with gallstones or thickened gallbladder walls.

Gallbladder polyps are more complex, in addition to metabolic reasons, mainly because some components are so much so that bile cannot be dissolved and is deposited on the gallbladder wall. Some medications and special diets contain too many ingredients, which can also be deposited on the wall of the gallbladder, causing bulge-like changes. When the inflammation of the gallbladder reaches a certain level, there will be proliferative changes on the gallbladder wall, which may be an early tumor.

The causes of benign tumors are complex, mainly related to immunity, and even related to the environment, diet, and unhygienic food. Therefore, its causes are complex, and it is not completely and thoroughly understood, and the main reason is still related to metabolism, similar to the formation of gallstones.

Factor 1: Improper diet.

Nowadays, the pace of this society is relatively fast, and many people are busy with work or taking care of their families all day long, and have no extra time and energy to cook and eat, so ordering takeout, eating instant noodles, eating fast food, and eating street snacks have become the norm in life. There are also some people who often skip breakfast for various reasons, or are hungry and full. There are also some people who drink and smoke for a long time, and eat high-fat and high-cholesterol foods.

As everyone knows, these improper dietary practices are more harmful to physical health, and in the long run, they can even cause various diseases, such as gallbladder polyps.

Studies have shown that long-term improper diet can easily cause changes in bile composition or lead to cholestasis, which increases the risk of gallbladder polyps.

Factor 2: Heredity.

Studies have shown that the occurrence of gallbladder polyps may also be genetic. If someone in a family has gallbladder polyps, others in the family are significantly more likely to develop the disease than normal. Therefore, people with a family history of gallbladder polyps should go to the hospital regularly for screening.

Factor 3: Obesity.

It is estimated that many people do not think that obesity is still an important factor in the cause of gallbladder polyps. Scientific studies have found that obese people have higher levels of cholesterol in their bodies. If cholesterol remains in the body for a long time, it may slowly deposit crystals on the gallbladder wall and develop into gallbladder polyps.

For obese people, it is recommended to "keep your mouth shut and open your legs" and control your weight, which can effectively reduce the chance of suffering from gallbladder polyps.

Factor 4, stay up late.

The occurrence of gallbladder polyps can also be caused by staying up late for a long time. In life, there are many people who need to stay up late and work overtime because of work, or stay up late because they are addicted to mobile games or TV series, and some people drink and eat until midnight because of socializing. As everyone knows, staying up late often increases the risk of gallbladder polyps, because people often get up late the next day after staying up late, and usually do not eat breakfast, but wait directly for lunch.

In this case, bile excretion is blocked after spending overnight in the gallbladder, and deposits and crystallizations appear, which in turn induce gallbladder polyps.

There are many causes of gallbladder polyps, which are usually related to chronic cholecystitis, cholesterol metabolism disorders, etc., as well as obesity, frequent smoking, drinking and drinking alcohol, and eating foods that are too high in fat.
