Could gallstones cause persistent pain?

Yes: Abdominal pain, especially if it doesn't go away, may be caused by gallstones. This is called biliary colic and can be cured by removing the gallbladder. See a doctor and get testing done which includes labs and an abdominal ultrasound looking at the gallbladder.
