What Causes Pain At Gall Bladder Removal Site?

I just had gallbladder laporascopic surgery three weeks ago. Most of pain is gone except for a spot on the left side of where the gallbladder used to be. Looking at the human anatomy it seems the pain is in the vicinity of pancreas of stomach. ppens Could you explain what this pain could be. It is not constant, only happens with certain movements and then sends a sharp feeling pain. Than you very much for your quick response.

hi.

noted history of post-operative pain. it is normal to experience this pain or discomfort from time to time, especially with movements. even those who was operated on several years back, may experience occasional "pain" or discomfort over the post-operative site. usually, it resolves spontaneously, even without analgesic intake. if the symptom is persistent and/or progressive, it is best if you do a follow-up consult with your doctor, for physical examination and clinical evaluation. diagnostics and management will be directed accordingly.

hope this helps.

good day!!
