Gallstones are small stones that form in the gallbladder, a small organ that sits beneath the liver and helps digest fats.
Many people with gallstones experience no symptoms, but when stones block the bile ducts they can cause painful attacks known as biliary colic.
According to the NHS, gallstones are common and often develop without obvious symptoms until they begin to cause pain or complications.
