Question: i have pain from right side rig cage to center of diafram into back continually can liver cause pain and heart problems
Brief Answer:
Yes liver and pancreatic pathology can cause similar pain.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
The pain you are experiencing can be due to liver or pancreatic pathology.
Musculoskeletal pain can also be the cause.
So better to get done liver function test, serum amylase, lipase.
Amylase, lipase are needed to rule out pancreatic pathology.
Liver function test is needed to rule out liver pathology.
If both are normal than no need to worry much for liver and pancreatic pathology.
Cardiac pain is less likely at this site. It is more common in left front side of chest.
Please let me know
1. Are you taking alcohol?
2. Are you having yellowish discoloration of urine?
3. Are you doing any strenuous exercise?
Please reply me answers of above asked questions, so that I can guide you better.
I will be happy to help you further.
