Gallstones Can Occur In Both Men And Women, But They Are More Common In Women And In People Over The Age Of 40. The Primary Symptom Of Cholelithiasis Is Pain In The Upper Right Abdomen, Usually After Eating A Fatty Meal. This Pain Is Known As Biliary Colic, And It Can Last Anywhere From A Few Minutes To Several Hours. Other Symptoms May Include Nausea, Vomiting, Fever, And Jaundice. Cholelithiasis Is Usually Diagnosed Through Imaging Tests, Such As An Ultrasound, CT Scan, Or MRI. These Tests Can Detect The Presence Of Gallstones And The Size And Location Of The Stones.
