What Is The Remedy For The Pain In Shoulder Blade After The Removal Of Gall Bladder?
For about 4weeks I have had painful burning pain under my right shoulder blade. I had my gall bladder removed dec, 10, I have been to my pcp and been on muscle relaxers for 2 weeks. The meds relieve the pain but it always comes back. I feel like a branding iron has been put on my back. Thank you for your help.

the pain is the back is caused by the irritation of the nerve. the distension of the diafragm during the operation lonked to the creation of the work chamber (pneumoperitoneum) can cause the neurological pain. usually the pain can last to 6 weeks and the painkillers are advised
