Your symptoms may be due to gall bladder calculus. At present,empirically you can take strong opoid analgesics like tramadol for pain relief. You need clinical correlation and investigations.Investigations include routine hemogram,renal function test,liver function test and Ultrasound of abdomen.
Ultrasound of abdomen can exclude many possibilities. Proper treatment depend upon findings.
