Gallbladder post surgery back ache

I had gallbladder removed via key hole surgery a week ago. Recovering well and all abdominal pain very much better. However, I still have some back ache that seems to get worse with activity. I certainly had this post op and always assumed it was gallbladder related. The ache was/is certainly right sided below scapula and corresponded where I used to get gallbladder pain on the front under my ribs. But I am now starting to question if it's something muscular. In addition at times it is not such an ache/pain but almost tingling sensation like there is some water running down my skin.

I wonder if anyone on here knows what it could be. Perhaps I'm just being impatient and the gallbladder surgery needs more time to settle down.
