What Causes Stones In Gallbladder And Kidney?

I get a stomach/abdomen ? cramp after I get up to urinate in the middle of the night. It takes about 1/2 hour to pass. I try to eliminate salt from diet but have had this for 1-1/2 year. Had ultra sound, cat scan and did not show anything severe. Some small stones in gall bladder and small stone in kidney. What is causing this? Thank you.
