Suggest Treatment For Gall Bladder Pain And Dark Colored Urine

My mom believes that she had a gallbladder attack this morning. We are still waiting for test results to find out exactly what it is. We are all pretty certain is her gallbladder. Her urine is very dark with dark flakes in it. She has been in pain for many hours now. She is asleep and I don t want to wake her if she is comfortable. But I m nervous that something is seriously wrong. Can this be dangerous? It can t be that bad if she s asleep, right? That would mean there is not a lot of pain.

HI

Greetings from Dr.Divakara.P
Thanks for posting your query.

It can be due to gall bladder problems but other possibility is liver problem like Liver infection or Liver damage due to certain medication.

But there is no need to worry even it is gall bladder or liver because the problem is of short duration and short duration problems are very unlikely to be serious.

So just wait till the scan report comes . Also I advise to get Liver Function Test done. Kindly revert back with the test and scan reports .

Hope this information is useful to you.
Any clarification feel free to ask.
