Gallstones are the most common cause of gallbladder problems. They are solid deposits that form in the gallbladder, typically consisting of cholesterol or bilirubin. Gallstones can block the bile ducts, leading to symptoms such as abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and jaundice.

Inflammation of the gallbladder, often caused by gallstones, can result in cholecystitis. The presence of gallstones can block the flow of bile, leading to irritation and infection of the gallbladder. Symptoms of cholecystitis include severe abdominal pain, fever, and tenderness in the right upper abdomen.

Blockage of the bile ducts, either by gallstones or other factors like tumors or strictures, can cause problems with the gallbladder. Bile duct blockage can lead to the buildup of bile and increased pressure in the gallbladder, resulting in pain and inflammation.

This condition refers to abnormal gallbladder function, where the gallbladder doesn’t contract and release bile properly. Biliary dyskinesia can lead to symptoms similar to gallstones or cholecystitis, such as abdominal pain and digestive problems.

Though relatively rare, gallbladder cancer can occur and may cause gallbladder problems. It often presents with symptoms similar to gallstones or cholecystitis.
