Hi.
Thanks for your history.
As per your findings this is looking more of an infected gall bladder or may be infection of liver or nearby areas.
The best investigation would be first to undergo ultrasonography to ascertain the cause.
Also you will have to undergo blood and other tests .
I think you take him to the ER.
