Hello! Thanks for putting your query in XXXXXXX I am a Gastroenterologist (DM).

Pain on right side under ribs may be because of pathology in liver, gallbladder, colon, lung, billiary tract, or stomach. So please describe your symptoms in detail. For ex: duration of pain, whether it is continous or intermittent, severe or mild, any associated feature like jaundice or fever, whether pain has any relation with intake of food or any bowel movement etc.

However I also want to know what was the histopatholgy report of the polyp removed.

I hope I have answered your query and this will help you. Remain in touch and get-well soon.

Hello! Pain appears to orignate from intestine only may be due to dysmotility as your doctor said or oit may be acid peptic disease.

So I will advise you to take a proton pump inhibitor like rabeprazole and a prokinetic agent like itopride. Also mild antispasmodic like tablet mebeverine

Hope your symptoms will be relieved. Remain in touch
