A member asked:
Can you feel gallstones, i have dull pain in upper abdomen under ribs on the right, really sharp if i bend to the right like something stabbing me from the inside.

Not exactly.: The location of your pain fits with possible gallstones. Pain from gallstones is not usually positional like how you describe. It is more common for the pain to be brought on by eating fatty meals. Enlargement or inflammation of your liver could possibly cause the symptoms you describe. Or a muscular strain. If the pain is ongoing, see your Dr to consider arranging an ultrasound scan.
