A member asked:

Gallbladder removed 2 months ago. sometimes have abd pain when laying on my left side. why?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pain after surgery: You have a scar in your abdomen. It's not uncommon to have some post surgical pain for months to a year when the scar is tugged, pressed, or stretched by the shifting of internal organs with certain movements. If it is very uncomfortable or worrisome please consult your surgeon.
