Gallbladder?

[shanbutler 15]

I hope not, how do ya know if it is gallbladder?

[kimberlee1235 52]

Is it a sharp pain? Is it constant? Is it only when you inhale?

Sounds like gallbladder to me

You would have to go in and get it checked. I had pain but lower by my hip and thought it was appendix. Turned out that my gallbladder had been blocked for a very long time and I had it taken out.

It's when I move in front on right side right underneath my rib cage.

Might want to get it checked out or at least call ur surgeons after hours number and see what they say. My gallbladder had been blocked for so long the the inside of my gallbladder had absorbed all the pigment of the bile left in there and the bile was clear. Surgeon said that is extremely rare.

10 days? Most likely still CO2 that hasn't worked itself out yet.

Yea, it could be gas. Even sometimes after the surgery your bowels will get inflamed or painful. It could be muscular or even the dreaded gall bladder. Your best bet is to give your Dr a call.
