Answer 1

You could also look up the symptoms of a gallbladder attack or gallstones.  Not sure about the swelling part, but the pain I got was in my high stomach/lower rib cage.  Mine was more in the middle and also moved to my neck and back.  A lot of info I found stated the pain is commonly on the right side.  

Answer 2

i can say 1 thing go to the doctors

Answer 3

It could be gall blatter stones. My mom just had surgery last week to get it removed. you should go see a doctor. my mom feels much better now. but for now take some pepsid and a pain reliever.  

Answer 4

Sounds like it could be gall stones, or inflammation of the gall bladder, I had to have mine removed it got so bad. If this is what it is the pain will keep getting worse until eventually you are in more pain than child birth (this is what a lot of people have said) although I have never has child birth.

It feels like someone has put a big elastic band around your abdomen and is tightening it.

Is this usually after eating? Especially food with a high fat content? eg, deep fried, oily foods.

Answer 5

I put my money on the gall bladder (they take it out through your mouth now, ewww)

***You can zero in on this by eating fatty foods(or just smelling fatty foods)... Sometimes people have defective gall bladders sometimes there are STONES...

I hope it's gas, (sometimes people get it when a foreign agent is in their tummies)

Go to the doctor, it could be a lot of things

Answer 6

sounds like lactose intolerance, does it coincide with the ingestion of dairy product?
