Hello friend,
With the question “Is the pain in the abdomen after gallbladder stone surgery 3 months old? ", the doctor replied as follows:
Abdominal pain has many causes that need to be diagnosed and treated. If you have had a gallstone cholecystectomy, there will be no recurrence of stones in your gallbladder because the gallbladder has been removed. Therefore, you need to be examined for specific evaluation (pain in one location or pain all over the abdomen, whether it spreads or not, is there a position to relieve pain, ...) from which to get a diagnosis and treatment direction for edema fit.
If you still have questions about abdominal pain after 3 months of gallstone surgery, you can go to a medical facility of Vinmec Health System for early examination and treatment. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
