Can patients with gallbladder polyps drink coffee?

In general, whether patients with gallbladder polyps can drink coffee depends on whether they have cholecystitis. If discomfort occurs, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly. The specific analysis is as follows:

1. Cannot drink coffee

If a patient with gallbladder polyps also has cholecystitis, drinking coffee may stimulate gallbladder contraction, increase bile secretion, and thereby exacerbate the inflammatory response. Therefore, in such cases, coffee should be avoided.

2. Can drink coffee

However, if a patient with gallbladder polyps does not have cholecystitis, moderate coffee consumption may help prevent the formation of gallstones. Therefore, in such cases, moderate coffee intake is acceptable.

Patients should follow the principle of a balanced diet in daily life, pay attention to fat and fiber intake, avoid overeating and excessive alcohol consumption to maintain gallbladder health, and, under a doctor's guidance, appropriately increase physical activity to enhance physical fitness and boost immune function.
