Gall Stones / Cholelithiasis (Stones in Gall Bladder)

Gallstones are clumps of crystallized cholesterol or some pigments in the gallbladder. The condition is common (11% of the population) and more commonly observed in females. (Medical dictum is: Its a disease of fat female of forty). The gallbladder is a small sac situated just under the liver and produces bile juice that is essential for the proper digestion of fats.

Causes

All the factors that form stone are present in the bile under normal circumstances; however, they are in a dissolved state. If there is an increase in the concentration of cholesterol or pigments, they crystallize and precipitate out as stones. Factors such as increasing age, pregnancy, obesity, liver disorders, and infections can have an impact on the development of gallstones. Some studies suggest that genetics and heredity factors are at the root of this condition which makes one prone to have gallstones.

Symptoms

Many patients having gallstones may not have any complaints. However, some may experience Colicky Pain in the upper abdomen radiating to the back. The pain may last up to 2-6 hours and is usually associated with vomiting.
