Digestive System will be effected.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Gall bladder is a small pouch like structure adjacent to the liver that stores bile.
  • When bile has excess of cholesterol and pigment, it solidifies to form gall stones.
  • Sometimes the gall stones go unnoticed but in most cases they cause severe pain and Digestive problems.
  • Gall stones can posses severe risk if left untreated like cholecystitis, jaundice, gall bladder cancer etc.
  • These Gall stones can flow out and block the hepato -pancreatic duct also.
