Numbness/muted pain in upper right abdomen

Dear doctor, I am a 28-year-old from India. I have been experiencing mild numbness/muted pain or, as another questioner put it across on this forum, slight bloated feeling in my upper right abdomen, a little above the floating rib. It is persisting continually (not continuously), without any perceptible pain during any kinds of body movements, over the last 2-3 months.
I have been drinking since 2001 and, on an average, almost 3-4 times a week. Although I am not a habitual drinker and don't experience any craving, I tend to drink heavily when I do.
I feel the numbness has got something to do with my drinking, on which I need better clarity from you. Kindly suggest me on what I should do at this point.

you could have some gall bladder problems going on, ask the doctor to do a hida scan.. high fat food also and spicy food ans alcohol will agravate it,, do not eat late , no snacking in the evening.There are some foods you can eat and some to avoid if you put gall bladder in the search engine it will give you a list of foods to avoid.good luck
