Severe pain right side at the bottom of my rib cage

[ga.peach 11]

I have had pain for 24 hours sharp, was worse when I moved around..right side underneath my bottom rib. talked with the nurse said maybe Constipation. Took care of that, I don't think that was it. Today I'm sore with sharp pain, but improved. Same spot? I woke up Friday morning with this pain, was fine when I went to bed. I did clean out my closet and moved a lot on Thursday. Anyone else had this happen?

Sometimes it is gall bladder related. More often the not it is incision pain from torn muscles. I had the same thing, but it eventually went sway after a couple weeks. Keep an eye on it.

Do you still have your gallbladder? Could really be a lot of things. If it persists.... Please see your doctor. Best wishes!!!

The only pain I can remember on my right side near the rib cage was gall bladder problems. I think that is quite common after VSG. If you dont start to feeling better go get checked out. Hope you feel better soon!

Thank you very much, its better today, but if it continues I will check in with the doctor on Monday. I had my gallbladder removed several years ago. I thinking (hoping) maybe a pulled muscle?

I had a severe burning sensation bear one of my incisions. Oh my goodness. It hurt so bad. I had a week post op appointment to follow up with my doc the next day, thankfully. She thought I might have a hernia and sent me to a CT scan. Thankfully it wasn't. I had just pulled some muscles with a possible tear. I felt much better within a few days!

Thank you, I am better today than yesterday. Just kinda freaked me out on Friday. Its just good to hear other people having the same problem. I've been taking it easy yesterday and today.

I just had my gallbladder removed 4 weeks ago. I have read that there are people that still get that pain and doctors have no answer. Go figure! I hope it goes away and doesn't come back!

I get weird pains. Like I will have an ache near an incision site, and it will last a couple hours...then move. So weird.

Thank you, I'm sure that is true. I'm thinking take it easy, but keep moving. Need to remember I'm 4 weeks post op. To watch my bending and twisting.

Well if it is your gall bladder it will happen again. Sometimes it will make you want to throw up, I had 2 "attacks" and I knrw what it was,called my pcp and he ordrted an ultrasound,sure enough gallstones,had my gallbladder out 2 Weeks latee

[azquilter92 82]

Oops just reread you reply,its not your gall bladder.

I don't have my gallbladder either. I'm a little over 2 weeks out from surgery. I don't have severe pain, but I do get soreness in the area you mentioned. It is usually if I have laid on my side for a while or if I sit in a certain position. Then I feel that soreness for a few minutes. I'm assuming it is torn muscles.

I'm glad you feel better. :-)

Thanks everyone. Went to the doctor Tuesday, possible scar tissue. Going for a CT scan today. I'll keep you posted. At least yesterday seemed better I can bend down and pick thing up easier.
