Many possibilities: There are many possible causes of right upper quadrant pain worse after eating. Most common causes include gastritis ulcer and gallstones.. often a trial of acid blocking medicine will reveal if the problem is gastritis or ulcer. An abdominal ultrasound will evaluate for gallstones.
