Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
This is common complications of gallbladder surgery and may happen if blood vessel is damaged or it bleeds fro the liver bed. You need to do ct scan and check our red blood count in most cases it can be treated without surgery but sometime sit is required do evacuate hematoma and coagulum if antibiotics wont work.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
