Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, I have pain in my mid-right abdomen level with my belly button that feels somewhat like a side ache. The pain comes and goes and feels very sharp and I have noticed it for the past few months. I had my gallbladder out five years ago and sometimes with this pain come pain in the upper right quadrant that I would have attributed to my gallbladder, except I don t have one. I have previously had ovarian cysts that ruptured but that was before I had children, my oldest is 11. I had a hysterectomy in 2010 so I m not sure if a cyst is still a possible culprit or if it is less likely now. The pain is becoming more frequent and annoying. Thanks for any advice.
