Dr. Ki-Hon Lin answered

Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

See a physician: Gallstones are a common condition which can lead to pain in the abdomen associated with nausea. If this is the case, a cholecystectomy (surgical removal of the gallbladder) may need to be done, so see a physician for further evaluation.
