Hi. Thanks for your query and a good clinical history. This is suggestive of a gall bladder infection or a stone. Other possible reason can be related to the stomach, duodenum liver or pancreas.
The best and the simplest way to get a proper diagnosis is ultrasonography of the abdomen. This will confirm the diagnosis and you can further plan the management according to the findings, which may be surgical.
