3. Fever
A gallbladder infection will mean that the body responds in the way that it would in the case of any other general infection. One of the first signs that someone has an infection is developing a fever – any body temperature that’s higher than normal, and any raised body temperature that lasts for more than a few hours.
We all know that if you have a fever, it’s likely that you are sick: Together with a fever, dehydration, tiredness, and confusion can be accompanying symptoms that happen as a direct result of the developed fever.
Sometimes a fever can be brought under control with medication like aspirin or paracetamol, but when caused by an inflamed gallbladder this might make the condition worse – and it could be dangerous depending on your individual symptoms.
If you suspect gallbladder infection, you should seek immediate medical attention and avoid treating the condition at home. The best treatment can be recommended after an examination.
