What Do Pain And Pressure In The Abdomen Indicate?
two years ago i had my gallbladder removed. two weeks ago I had the stomach flu, I am still experiencing pain/pressure in my abdomen, a constant gnawing mostly on the right side, and occasional nausea. The physician is saying it could be acid reflux, but i do not have burning

Hello,
Postcholecystectomy syndrome is possible after gall bladder removal surgery. If no improvement after taking proton pump inhibitor like Rabeprazole and motility enhancers like domperidone then ultrasound examination should be done to know the exact status.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
