Brief Answer:
Does this get worse when you eat a fatty meal?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this cramp that you have reported. The location of this pain and t nature raises the suspicion of a possible gallbladder disorder. If this is the case, It will normally get worse after taking fatty meal. If this is the case with you, I will suggest that you go ahead and get an ultrasound to look at the gallbladder for possible conformation and treatment.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
