Gall Bladder Stone & Billiary Disease

Gall bladder stone and biliary diseases disrupt bile flow, causing pain and digestive problems if not treated early.

What Are Gall Bladder Stone & Biliary Diseases?

Gall bladder stone and biliary diseases are conditions that affect the gall bladder and bile ducts, which play a crucial role in digestion by storing and transporting bile. Gallstones are hardened deposits of bile that can block bile flow, causing pain, inflammation, and infection. Biliary diseases may involve the gall bladder, bile ducts, or both, and can range from mild to life-threatening if untreated.
