Hello,

After gallbladder removal, few people may develop diarrhoea due to bile entry onto stomach more frequently.

Some people may develop indigestion so you have to take less fatty food.

Adopt a low-fat diet. Avoid eating fatty foods, such as fried foods. Eat small, frequent meals. Avoid eating a very large dinner after fasting all day.

If symptoms not improved please get it done stool for fat estimation and stool microscopy.

Please consult your physician/gastroenterologist he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
