Biliary colic : Gallstone attacks might feel like a baby kick. Generally biliary colic is right sided, above the umbilicus, lasts 20 minutes or longer, associated with nausea and occasional vomiting. Fatty foods make it worse. Go for a surgery consult. Gallstones can be dangerous to your overall health.

Pain in gall bladder disease varies based on the extent of disease could be mild RUQ , rt shoulder, and back pain in mild disease to severe unbearable pain, peritonitis and shock in a ruptured gangrenous gall bladder.
