Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Radiating Pain Between Ribs, Lower Back And Chest Pain. History Of Gall Bladder Removal. Opinion?
Male 69yrs old reasonably good health in general. Feeling weak in legs, sharp pain just in area of bottom of the ribs. Moves from side to side with severe pain in back and a slight pain in right shoulder to elbow. Rapid heart beat. constant cough. At times severe pain in middle of chest. Nausia at times. (I have had gallblader removed)
I suggest you to go to sonologist and do USG abdomen done. As this symptoms more suggestive of pancreatitis but your gall bladder is removed so it makes little confusing which can be confirmed only on sonography. Besides there it can be any other pathology also. Your treatment plan depends upon the investigations done.
