Does Gallbladder Dysfunction Cause Pain In The Upper Abdomen?
i have had pains in my upper right abdomen for 6 years now, I have been to the doctor multiple times and they always say its just IBS or something like that. I also have an indentation in the area where it hurts. The pains are typically mild and come and go a lot. Today, I had some pains in my right shoulder...could this be a problem with my gall bladder or liver?
