A member asked:
Are there any relations between gall bladder pain and bowel movements?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Absorption of fat: When the bowel can't efficiently absorb the nutrients passing through, those undigested products speed up the bowel movements. Gb pain, may be from stones or dysfunction of the gallbladder. The gb assists in absorption of fat. Fats consumed usually provoke gb pain and may also increase bloating and bowel movements as well.
