Nowadays many people have the problem of gallstones. There are many reasons for this. Cancer is a common thing in today's busy world. Both are emerging as serious health problems. Many people are confused about whether there is any connection between the two. But it is also said that there is no direct relation between them.

Dr. Mayank Madan, Director of Minimal Access and Bariatric Surgery, Birla Hospital Gurugram, has given some important information on this. He says that due to lack of food and water, people may suffer from stones. Gallbladder stones are a serious problem. In which patients suffer severe stomach pain.

Stones present in the body can be divided into two types.

– The first type of stone found in the gall bladder is called 'gallstone'.

– The second type of stone is found in the kidney.

Kidney stones are removed through urine. But if there are gallbladderstones then it may be necessary to remove the gall bladder. When cholesterol accumulates in the gall bladder, it turns into crystalline stones and is called 'gallstone'.

In some cases, patients with gallstones may have an increased risk of cancer. Here are some factors for that:

1. High blood pressure

People with gallstones often have high blood pressure. This increases the risk of cancer. High blood pressure promotes blood pressure which can lead to the development of cancer in the body. Therefore, gallstone patients can reduce the risk of cancer by regularly contacting their doctor and getting their blood pressure checked.

2. Smoking

Smoking and excessive alcohol consumption increases the risk of gallstones and cancer. Both of these are harmful habits for the body. This not only increases the risk of stones but also increases the risk of cancer. Therefore, it is very important to follow a healthy lifestyle to maintain physical health.

3. Diet

eating unhealthy foods and Not eating at the right time increases the risk of gallstones, which ultimately increases the risk of cancer. High-fat foods, low-fiber foods, processed foods, and fast foods can increase the risk of cancer.
