Referred pain: This is an example of pain referred to the right shoulder caused by gas,irritation and/or inflammation of the diaphragm under which the gall bladder was located. This can occur for a day or two but shouldn't worsen or be accompanied by chills, fever or severe abdominal pain. If you have further concerns, notify the surgeon who performed the procedure.
