I had gallbladder surgery this morning and now i'm in extreme pain, the pain medication is not helping. what else can i take?

Contacr you surgeon: Call your surgeon to notify them the pain medication is not working. Do not take additional medication without checking with your surgeon. Some pain after surgery is normal but sometimes excess pain indicates surgical concerns, so your surgeon should be notified.
