A member asked:
Hi doctor, if someone had open surgery after having stones removed through laparoscopy which damaged bile duct and had to cut 50% can it heal back?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Depending on it was repaired, it could heal well enough so as not to cause problems. Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex.
