Overweight. Pain In Liver Region. Drinking More Water And Coconut Water. Any Advice?

Hi! I m a 48 yr old man who is overweight but still active. Recently I ve developed a pain on my right side that flares up when I lay down. I believe it s in my liver region. I started drink more water and coconut water and have pulled back on drinking diet soda . I still have 2 cups of coffee in the morning. Any advice?

your symptoms may be due to inflammations of gall bladder or stones of gall bladder.In my opinion you need a U.S.G of upper abdomen to rule out/confirm the pathology of Gall-Bladder.
