Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your feedback.
Sharp, intense pain on right about waist high for 3 days without any other symptoms. Painful on pushing, no swelling - hurts when you you take early deep breath or cough ...
This is most probably due to the following reasons:
- Can be pleura or lower inflammation which can give referred pain, muscle spasm and so on.
- Local muscular problem.
- Neurological like herpes or neuritis or nerve pinching syndrome.
Such a problem certainly needs the following:
- Clinical evaluation, examination and investigations like X-ray of the chest, ultrasonography of the abdominal wall and abdomen, tests of blood, urine and stool as needed.
Actual clinical examination by a Doctor helps decide the probable reasons, to conduct the investigations and plan a treatment as per the findings.
I hope this answer helps you to get an early and proper diagnosis and treatment, please feel free to ask for further relevant queries if you feel that there is a gap of communication.
