Yes my name is lorna just would like to know. I had gall bladder surgery four months ago. And i was ok til i broke out with a rash took a test for scabbies but turned out not to be that so my dr thinks i have a staph infection. And my stomach starting to hurt mornings im usually ok than by night i start hurting what should i do go to the hospital where i had the surgery done or what. My dr gave me strong antibotioc meds and cream. But they seem to be getting worse. Thank u.
Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have abdominal pain post a gallbladder removal surgery. Well there is usually minimal pain associated with this operation. The abdomen will be sore as well as the small incision sites. As you become more active the amount of pain medication needed should decrease quickly. It will go with time. I would suggest you to take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain and consult with your surgeon again if condition doesn't get better. Doctor will examine physically or order ultrasound to rule out any problem or infection and treat it accordingly. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
