What Causes Severe Pain After Gall Bladder Removal?

My adult son had gall bladder removed in November. Is experiencing some mild to severe pain in the solar plexus area of one of the surgery incisions. Also experiencing white colored bowel movements. He drinks large amounts of Mountain Dew soda and has poor eating habits. Would like to know what this is indicative of and if immediate attention is recommended. He indicates that he will try to set up an appt. with his caregiver tomorrow.

Hi
Looking at history and dietary habit of your son in my opinion he might be suffering from acid reflux or gastritis

Please ask him to take tab pantoprazole 40 mg once daily with antacids

plenty of fluids and fresh fruits will definitely help
Try to avoid fatty fried and junk foods

Hope this helps him
have a nice day
