What is a Gallbladder ?
The Gallbladder is a small sac located on the right-hand side of the body, on the underside of the liver, below the front rib cage. Its primary purpose is to collect and concentrate a digestive liquid (bile) produced by the liver. Bile is released from the gallbladder after eating, aiding digestio
Bile travels through a narrow tube (bile ducts) into the small intestine. If they block the bile duct, they can be extremely painful.
There are two main types of gallstones :

these may form if there is too much cholesterol in the bile.
Pigment gallstones :
