What Causes Severe Pain In The Abdomen After A Gall Bladder Surgery?

Hello, I had gall bladder surgery three weeks ago. Everything was going extremely well until last Friday. I now have intermittent sharp pain in my side similar to the pain I had before surgery. Now I am experiencing diarrhea. I am not a worrier but am a bit concerned as I was hoping things would continue to go in a positive direction. So my question becomes what are the danger signs or signs that I need to seek help? Is this a natural course of healing with this type of surgery?

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Get your liver function done, serum amylase lipase, and a repeat ultrasound done. This may be possible symptom after surgery of gall bladder.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
