Hello,
Abdominal pain after gall bladder removal suggestive of postcholecystectomy syndrome.
For that Colestipol like a tablet can be prescribed. But you need to investigate with USG abdomen scan and MRCP like investigation according to need to rule out any stone in biliary tract.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
