What is gall bladder?
The gallbladder or gall bladder is a small non-vital organ that aids in the digestive process and stores bile produced in the liver.
What is bile?
Bile or gall is a bitter yellowish, blue and green fluid secreted by hepatocytes from the liver of most vertebrates. In many species, bile is stored in the gallbladder between meals and upon eating is discharged into the duodenum where the bile aids the process of digestion of lipids by emulsification.
HealthDay News -- Gallstones are stones of varied sizes that form in the gallbladder, and are usually composed of cholesterol or excess bilirubin in the bile. Some gallstones cause no symptoms, while others can cause significant pain.
The U.S. National Library of Medicine offers this list of gallstone warning signs:
- Pain that occurs in the upper-right or upper-middle abdominal area. It may come and go, and may be more noticeable after you eat.
- Pain that spreads to the back or beneath the right shoulder blade.
- Pain that feels dull, crampy or sharp.
- Pain accompanied by fever or jaundice (yellowing of eyes and skin).
- Nausea or vomiting.
- Passing stools the color of clay.
If you notice some of these signs then see a doctor.
