Guest guest Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Has his gallbladder been checked? I suppose it probably has been. You can also get an obstruction in the bile ducts of the liver that can cause pain in that general area. A friend had her gallbladder surgically removed 10 months ago with continuing pain in that area. I researched her situation via internet. As it turns out many people post removal of gallbladders continue to have pain on the right side. Doctors are quick to remove the gallbladder and in most cases it should be removed. I do not know if your friend's problem is related to gallbladder issues, and I suppose he has had CT, ultrasound or MRI already. But if the gallbladder has not been looked into, that is a possible source. People who have gallstone in the gallbladder or stones in the liver could do a gallbladder / liver flush. There are many computer sites that give information on how to do that. Good luck. Linda -------------- Original message ---------------------- " dizzy6922485 " <dizzy6922485 > OK...

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 HI Kris: My guess is , he should be having gallstones. Gallstones will cause pain in the Right side just belwow rib cage. He should have found through Ultrasound. Not sure how it got missed. Thanks, Rajesh --- dizzy6922485 <dizzy6922485 wrote: > OK...

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Kris, If it's off to the side, have the obliques checked for spasm. It's commonly overlooked. It could also be coming up from the illiosoaz or the IT band. When did it start? After a certain incident? Is he right-handed? That could be a clue. Is the pain exagerrated by movement? What kind? And what kind of pain is it? Sharp, dull, rheumatic? Has cryotherapy or thermo/hydrotherapies been tried? -R.A.Silva, L.M.T.- P.S. What's with all the numbers in your name? What do they mean? dizzy6922485 <dizzy6922485 wrote: OK... I have a friend of mine that has had pain in his right side for 3 and half years....
