Welcome to healthcare magic for your health concerns
I am Dr Fahim, and I will be answering your query . . .
I have gone through your question and understood your concerns. It appears to be pain / lump of the gall bladder because of gall bladder stones called Cholelithiasis. Your symptoms are well explained by this diseases. To confirm our diagnosis we need Ultrasonography Abdomen along with blood complete picture and liver function tests to rule out infection and gall stones effects on liver functions. If such a patient walk into my clinic I start treatment with tab paracetamol 500mg 8hourly, tab Nospa 40mg 12hourly, tab metoclopramide 10mg 12hourly, cap omeprazole 40mg 24hourly. Meanwhile counselling and preparing patient for cholecystectomy, preferably laparascopic cholecystectomy. However, these are prescription drugs and many tests needs to be interpreted, you need to see a general surgeon to accomplish all these tasks.
I hope my answer will help you. Please do rate my answer if you like it
