A member asked:
What causes upper right abdominal tightness? i am not constipated. tightness is worse after eating.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Right upper quadrant: The liver and gall bladder are in that area of the abdomen. This could be muscular discomfort but its association with eating may indicated a digestive disorder. Your physician should evaluate you and order any appropriate tests in order to make a diagnosis.
