  2. Common Symptoms • Abdominal Pain: The most common symptom is a sudden and intense pain in the upper right portion of the abdomen. This pain, often referred to as biliary colic, can last from a few minutes to several hours. It may also radiate to the back or right shoulder blade. • Nausea and Vomiting: People with gallbladder stones in jaipur often experience nausea and vomiting, especially during a gallstone attack. • Indigestion: Symptoms of indigestion, such as bloating, heartburn, and gas, can occur, particularly after eating fatty or greasy foods. • Fever and Chills: If a gallstone causes an infection or inflammation of the gallbladder (cholecystitis), it can lead to fever and chills. • Jaundice: If a gallstone blocks the bile duct, it can cause jaundice, a condition where the skin and the whites of the eyes turn yellow due to the buildup of bilirubin in the blood. • Clay-Colored Stools and Dark Urine: Blockage of the bile duct can also cause stools to become pale and urine to darken.

  3. Less Common Symptoms • Persistent Pain: Continuous or severe pain lasting more than a few hours can indicate a more serious condition, such as acute cholecystitis or pancreatitis. • Loss of Appetite: The discomfort and pain associated with gallstones can lead to a decreased desire to eat. • General Malaise: Feeling generally unwell or fatigued can accompany the other symptoms.
