Gallbladder?: This maybe gallbladder disease; very common even in young people and the most common cause is gallstones. This pain typically occurs after eating heavier food with cholesterol or fat in it. She should talk to her doctor about this possibility bar cause she will need an ultrasound and/or HIDA scan to confirm.
