A member asked:
Can gallbladder make your belly really big?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: gall bladders are usually asmptomatic and only when inflamed from stones does pain develop but never belly enlargement. Here putting on wt. causes belly enlargement unless there is partial bowel obstruction with distended intestine which can cause protrusion of the abdomen
