<s>[INST] I am 49 years old, female. Gallbladder removed and recently diagnosed with s.o.d for the past week I have a new discomfort -a tingling feeling on the right side under rib cage . It comes and goes but today it has lasted the longest of 15 minutes . What is causing this sensation. I am on medication for s.o.d but the tingling started before the medicine and now lasting longer . [/INST] Dear patient thank you for that question. There are 2 explanations to your doubt:1) The procedure could have resulted in a Nerve being nicked leading to tingling of that particular nerve. If that is the case it should start to improve in 4 weeks2) If you underwent a laparoscopy procedure some co2 may have diffused into your diaphragm causing tinglingHowever that latter is extremely rare and none of the above are to be worried about as both are self resolving </s>
