Covid and Gallstones
I am 65 years old and had fatty liver for several years..
Last year I got Covid Pnemonia in December and was hospitalized for 16 days..Then I recovered..
Next month in January I got severe stomach paina and in ultrasound it said multiple stones largest being 5.5 mm and cholestorosis in gallbladder..
My question is that DID I GET GALLSTONES DUE TO COVID?
Is there a connection?

No, gall stones are not related to Covid infection. They are two different issues.
It may be that you had gall stones earlier but as you had USG in January, you were diagnosed then.
