What are the causes of the gallbladder to become painful?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually stones: But sometimes it can become inflamed without stones, in a condition called acalculous cholecystitis. But other causes can be mistaken for gallbladder pain, such as ulcers, kidney stones, or even intestinal cancer, so have your doctor take a look at you.
