Brief Answer:
Require a few more details regarding your complaints

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I require a few more details regarding your complaint.
Do you frequently get these complaints or have they started only now? If you had them before too, since when?
Also it would be more helpful if you can tell me where the exact location of the pain is? Is it in right upper or lower quadrant of your stomach? Or in the left upper/ lower quadrant. You also mentioned it occurs on having oily food.
Does the pain radiate to your shoulders, especially the right side? Any nausea or fever history? Bloating sensation?

Please get back with answers. Meanwhile if the ache gets too much, you can use an antispasmodic like dicyclomine in consultation with your physician.

Brief Answer:
Try taking a syrup Mucaine

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
It then would be most probably due to indigestion. You should try taking a oral suspension syrup called Mucaine. It is available OTC. Take a 10 ml of it around half an hour before food, in the morning and night. If the pain still continues, I think it would be prudent to get an ultrasound of the abdomen especially liver and gall bladder.
Meanwhile you should avoid sleeping late and having oily food and other lifestyle habits that you think are aggravating this condition.
Hope it helps.
