hi.

to answer your question, yes, gallbladder problem can cause abdominal pain. the usual presentation is colicky in character, located on epigastric to right upper quadrant of the abdomen, occasionally, with radiation to the back, flank area and ipsilateral shoulder. it may be secondary to an infective or obstructive (gallstones or lesions) pathology. it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a gastroenterologist or a general surgeon, for physical examination and clinical evaluation. diagnostics and management (medical and/or surgical if indications are found) will be directed accordingly. low fat diet is also recommended.

hope this helps.

good day!!
