Overview Of Gallbladder Attack Symptoms

Dark Urine

Dark urine often occurs during a gallbladder attack. It is a late-stage symptom! Specifically, this symptom appears when patients have not received treatment for hours. Dark urine is also a sign of acute gallbladder inflammation. A patient's urine will appear dark brown, like the color of tea, or bright yellow. The discoloration is a sign that gallstones are blocking the patient's bile duct and the pigment is forming in the gallbladder!

Treatment for a gallbladder attack and inflammation relieve this symptom quite quickly. However, patients need to be in the hospital. This is because successful treatment requires intravenous antibiotics! Doctors recommend surgery to prevent future gallbladder attacks and complications. Recovery will continue in the patient's home.
