Any other associated symptoms like nausea , vomiting , fever, loose motion or so?This can be due to infection of the liver or gall bladder or colon on that side. You need a high resolution ultrasonography to know what is going on inside and to take antibiotic course. If need be as per reports of the USG , you may need surgery .
