Gallstones can range in size from a grain of sand to a golf ball. The gallbladder can develop a single large gallstone, hundreds of tiny stones, or both small and large stones. Gallstones can cause sudden pain in the upper right abdomen.
Gallstones are the most pressing of all gallbladder diseases. They develop when substances in the bile (such as cholesterol, bile salts, and calcium) form hard particles that block the passageway to the gallbladder. In addition, stones tend to form when the gallbladder doesnât empty completely or often enough. They vary in size from as small as a grain of sand to as large as a golf ball. Numerous factors contribute to your risk of gallstones. These include: 1  being overweight or obese. 2  eating a high-fat or high-cholesterol diet. 3  having diabetes. 4  being age 60 or older.
