Introduction: Gallstones are solidified sediments of the digestive fluid, bile that can develop inside the gallbladder.

Summary Introduction

Introduction:   The gallbladder is a little pouch-like gland on the right-hand side of the abdomen.

The most common modes of gallbladder disease originate from possessing too much cholesterol or bilirubin, which is a pigment of the liver in the bile.
