A member asked:

I had gallbladder removal 7 weeks ago (laparoscopic) i'm having severe burning pain under my lower right rib area when getting up from bed, coughing, sneezing, bending, walking, laying on my right side?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Since all symptoms point to the right upper abdomen or right lower lung, we have to consider a complication of surgery, liver inflammation,musculoskeletal pain or right lower lobe lung infection/inflammation. Absence of fever&sweats speaks against infection like an abscess or pneumonia. Labs would detect liver inflammation. That leaves muscle or rib cage pathology. Your surgeon should examine you
