Gallstone

Gallstone

Gallstones are small, hardened deposits of bile, typically made up of cholesterol, bilirubin, or calcium salts that form in the gallbladder. They can range in size from a grain of sand to a golf ball. Gallstones can be asymptomatic, but when they become large enough, they can cause abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and jaundice. The most common cause of gallstones is an imbalance in the production and excretion of bile. This imbalance can be caused by genetics, diet, and lifestyle. People who are overweight, have diabetes, are pregnant, or take certain medications are at higher risk of developing gallstones. Gallstones can be treated with medication or surgery. Medication can help dissolve the stones, while surgery can remove the gallbladder and the stones. The best way to prevent gallstones is to maintain a healthy weight, exercise regularly, and eat a balanced diet that is low in fat and cholesterol. It is also important to avoid rapid weight loss. Gallstones can be serious, so it is important to talk to your doctor if you suspect you have them. Early diagnosis and treatment can help reduce the risks associated with gallstones and improve your overall health.
