4. Causes of gallbladder pain
Cholecystitis: Gallbladder
inflammation
It is a condition that could lead to the
damage of the gallbladder's function if
not treated well. Cholecystitis can
either be acute or chronic.
Choledocholithiasis:
Common bile duct stones
Common bile duct stones are usually
gallbladder stones that were formed in
the gallbladder before passing into the
bile duct.
Gallstones
Gallstones are hardened fluid
deposits that form inside of the
gallbladder. A high level of
cholesterol could cause the
formation of these small gallstones
that could go undetected for years.
Other types of gallstones are formed
due to the presence of calcium
bilirubinate.
Gallbladder Cancer
When the symptoms start to
show, abdominal pain,
unexplained weight loss, and
belly bloating are experienced.
Eating unhealthy food can
increase the risk of getting
gallbladder cancer.

5. Symptoms of gallbladder pain
Abdominal pain
Pain located deep into the right side of
the abdomen under the ribs could
indicate gallbladder pain.
Jaundice
Excessive bile can build up and enter into
the bloodstream therefore causing the
appearance of a yellowish tone to your
skin and in the white of the eyes. Urine
could also turn to a darker tea-like color,
while stool could acquire a lighter-color.
Nausea and vomiting
The irritation and the sense of
discomfort in the digestive system is
a common and widespread
symptom that indicates gallbladder
problems if accompanied with
gallbladder pain.
Chronic Diarrhea
Chronic Diarrhea may be a sign
that you suffer from chronic
gallbladder disease. More than
four bowel movements a day is a
diarrhea indicator.
