Gallbladder symptoms: "Biliary" symptoms are sub-acute onset of right upper quadrant abdominal discomfort (radiates to right shoulder blade, crescendoing over several minutes, resolving over 6-8 hours +/-nausea/vomit. This typically occurs after a fatty meal due to a gallstone becoming impacted in the cystic duct (connection of gallbladder to biliary tree). Acalculous cholecystitis is a sick gallbladder without stones.

Laparoscopic Gallbladder surgery 4 weeks ago. The top incision on the right side was itching today, instead of scratching it I lightly rubbed it. I felt a gush/pop and then burning. Now very sore to the lightest touch. Is this normal or a concern?

I've had a burning, stabbing pain in my left shoulder blade for 2 years. No one has helped and I had an Oopherectomy last year (discovered because of the pain). But nothing has helped and I need to know who to see next. My gall bladder is fine.
