If your pain persists or worsens, please consult your surgeon for a proper evaluation, as this could indicate post-cholecystectomy syndrome or other complications that need medical attention.
Possibilities:
Mild back and shoulder discomfort
Some digestive adjustments
Occasional muscle soreness
Warning signs that require immediate medical attention:
Severe or increasing pain that doesn't improve
Fever over 101°F
Yellowing of skin or eyes
Persistent nausea or vomiting
Severe abdominal bloating
