Suggest home remedy for upper right sided pain after eating
Patient: i have been having a sever pain on the upper right side,it came back after i ate 1/2 of a hamburger , i was able to drink a bottle of water and lay down with pressure on pain, in about 1/2 hour it went away but i could literally feel food traveling through my system. i have history of gallstones by ultra sound but no pain . i wonder if it is necessary to go to hospital(which I hate- Doctors do what they want don t listen to you) or if there is a home remedy to get rid of this problem. Doctor: Hello,Since you have gall stones confirmed by ultrasound and the pain occurred after a fatty meal, it is very likely to be a colic arising from the biliary system. You can try an antispasmodic like buscopan and the pain may go off. If it persists or returns, I think you should go to the hospital because a gall stone may have entered and is causing a block in the biliary tree or there may be an infection.I hope you will find a compassionate doctor this time. Remember to ask them one question at a time and most doctors are willing to help you.Hope you get well soon.If you have any further query, you can contact me and I shall be happy to give my opinion.Dr. Noble Zachariah, Kuwait
