Hello,
I had gone through the case and found that it might be due to either spinal anaesthsia given at the time of gall bladder removal or lumbar spondylosis.
So go for MRI of lumbosacral region to find the cause.
Meanwhile take mild painkiller and calcium once a day.
After diagnosis go for physiotherapy and do back and leg exercise.
Hope my answer will be effective for you.
Thanks
