Anyone with gallstone ? Advice

Recently I’ve been getting a dull ache in my back on the right side at the base of shoulder blade.
Only way I can describe it is
Like something stuck ?
I feel for some reason I have to burp, and it’s really loud.
It doesn’t go when I burp though
Could this be gallstones?
Are these symptoms anything like you get?

Or is it wind ? In my back ??

I never had a dull ache with my gallstones, always a full blown excruciating painful episode. See your GP.

Gallstone pain is excruciating and usually comes in the form of attacks that last for hours and then go away

Defo not excruciating
So I’m at a lost now

Thanks

I had dull persistent ache, Dr referred me to hospital and it was a gallstone. Thankfully never had a full blown gallbladder attack

Gallbladder now removed with one massive stone as a keepsake

I had pancreatitis due to gallstones OP and it was as you describe OP. Got worse overtime, but was never a stabbing type pain, was almost like very painful trapped wind.

This is how mine felt. Thought I had IBS for years. I'd be really burpy, and get achy funny I dismissed as wind/cramps

Looking back now, it was the start of gallbladder issues.

How many times can I say OP, OP?! 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣

@GuyFawkesDay did all your symptoms go away after removal? I have same symptoms with stones but no major attack!
