Are Pain In Stomach And Back Suggestive Of Gallbladder Issues?
My mom (88) is having stomach pain along with back pain, back last September she had gall bladder problems, they cleared it out but didn t take out her gall bladder, could this stomach pain with back pain be her gall bladder acting up again, or something else?

Hello
Gall bladder pain is usually located in the right upper abdominal area, and it can sometimes radiate to the right shoulder.
With stomach and back pain, this is more likely a peptic ulcer problem or pancreatitis and she needs to see her doctor for an evaluation
