What Causes Right Abdominal Pain After Gall Bladder Removal?
I had my Gallbladder removed 2 weeks ago, I have been suffering from right abdominal pains for 2 days. Pain seems to increase in the afternoon. I went to accident and emergency where they told me I had a bad infection (UTI) do you think that is the case as I feels teh pain is going right through me to my back?
yes ,UTI can cause pain if its causing infection around kidney sometimes stones can also cause such pain radiating to back ,pain because of gall bladder is very unlikely since its almost 2 weeks . get usg kub to rule out infection around kidney /stones drink plenty of fluids cranberry juice /syrup alkasol can help in reveling UTI to review with reports if required
