What Causes Pain Under The Right Rib Cage After Eating?

I am currently experiencing pain right below my rib cage on the right side after I eat. There are times when that area has a numb feeling. It doesn t happen all the time, but becoming more frequent. I have always had mild constipation issues and here lately after I have a bowel movement that pain is there on the right side. If it is my gallbladder do I need to seek attention or just try to watch what I eat. I past two months during my menstrual cycle I have been experiencing alot of water retention in my legs and ankles.
