Why Do I Have Pain At The Gall Bladder Operation Site?
I have been having pain for 3 years where i had gall bladder surgery - xrays, etc show nothing - but just found out I have surgical clamps on the inside - they say that is okay - this weekend it hurts again there and I have been debating whether to go to the er - don't want to go if it is nothing - could the clamps slip and cause this pain or can a muscle make it hurt that bad around the ribs - I had low red cells for a few months but they are back to normal.

Hi
The problem wouldn't be the surgical clips but you may have intestinal adhesions causing a partial obstruction so you need to get this evaluated at the ER
