Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Treatment in Karnal – EROS Superspeciality Hospital
Gallstones (Cholelithiasis) are hard deposits that form in the gallbladder, a small organ located beneath the liver that stores and releases bile for digestion. These stones can vary in size—from a grain of sand to a golf ball—and may cause severe pain or serious complications if not treated in time.
Affecting nearly 1 in 5 adults, gallstones are more common in women and individuals with a sedentary lifestyle or high-fat diet. If untreated, they can block bile ducts or cause infections, leading to cholecystitis (gallbladder inflammation), choledocholithiasis (bile duct stones), or pancreatitis (pancreas inflammation)—all of which may require surgical care.

Types of Gallstones
- Cholesterol Stones: The most common type; yellow in color, caused by high cholesterol levels, obesity, or poor diet.
- Pigment Stones: Dark brown or black stones formed due to excess bilirubin; linked with liver diseases, anemia, or infections.
- Mixed Stones: Contain both cholesterol and bilirubin; often irregular in shape and more difficult to treat.
Symptoms of Gallstones / Gallbladder Stones
In many cases, gallstones remain “silent”, causing no symptoms for years. However, when symptoms appear, they can be extremely painful and disruptive:
- Severe abdominal pain (biliary colic) fatty meals
- Pain radiating the back or right shoulder
- Nausea and vomiting
- Indigestion, bloating, or gas
- Jaundice (yellowing of skin/eyes, dark urine, pale stool)
- Fever or chills (may indicate infection or inflammation) If you experience these symptoms, timely diagnosis and medical attention are essential.
Causes and Risk Factors
Several factors can increase the likelihood of gallstone formation:
- Excess cholesterol in bile
- Concentrated bile due to dehydration or fasting
- Gallbladder dysfunction
- Liver or red blood cell disorders
- Obesity or rapid weight loss
- Age and female gender
- Genetic predisposition
- Certain digestive or liver diseases
Not everyone with these risk factors develops gallstones—but understanding them can help with prevention and early detection.
Causes and Risk Factors
Without timely treatment, gallstones can lead to:
- Acute Cholecystitis: Painful inflammation and infection of the gallbladder
- Bile Duct Blockage: Causing jaundice or liver damage
- Pancreatitis: Inflammation of the pancreas
- Empyema or Gangrene: Accumulation of pus or tissue death
- Gallbladder Rupture: A surgical emergency
- Chronic Digestive Disorders: Persistent bloating and indigestion
Prevention Tips
You can lower your risk of gallstones through healthy lifestyle choices:
- Maintain a healthy body weight
- Eat a fiber-rich, low-fat diet
- Limit saturated fats and processed sugars
- Choose healthy fats (olive oil, nuts) in moderation
- Stay well-hydrated
- Avoid skipping meals or crash dieting
- Engage in regular physical activity
- Consult your doctor for personalized dietary and lifestyle advice
