What Causes Inflammation On The Gall Bladder?

I went to the doctor yesterday because I was having lower abdominal pain. When he felt around my gallbladder he said it was inflammed. He then sent me to get an ultrasound which showed nothing abnormal. When the technician was putting the camera around my gallbladder, I did have a lot of pain. My doctor prescribed me omeprazole. My question is, is this prescription correct and what causes an inflammed gallbladder?

Hello and thanks you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein and I will try to help you as much as I can with my answer.

Usually,this is cause by gallbladder stones but in rare cases it may be seen even without stones especially in diabetic. You should get antibiotics and antiacid medications so it is good therapy and it should improve symptoms.
