Be seen today
Seek urgent medical assessment if you develop steady upper-right or upper-middle abdominal pain that lasts more than a few hours, especially with fever, repeated vomiting, or marked tenderness.
New jaundice, dark urine, or pale stools also needs prompt assessment.
After surgery, get urgent advice for increasing wound redness, pus, worsening abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, fever, or jaundice.
Mild soreness and tiredness can be expected during recovery, but symptoms that are getting worse rather than better should be reviewed.
Every sign above is quoted from the sofidex article on Gallbladder inflammation. If you are not sure, err upward — it is always reasonable to be checked.
