Symptoms and treatment of biliary tract dyskinesia
Difficult passage of bile through the ducts is diagnosed as dyskinesia of the biliary tract. This condition consists in increased or excessively impaired functioning of the biliary tract, pathological changes in the tissues of the liver and gall bladder are absent. Treatment of dyskinesia of the biliary tract can be carried out at home, but with the mandatory supervision of a doctor.
