Sharp Pain On Breathing. Had Taken Medicine For Stabbing Stomach Pain. Treatment Required?
Hi,
i woke up last night with stabbing stomach pains and ending up vomiting, i have been taking paracetamol and some heartburn and indigestion tablets. Almost 24 hours later it now feels like a sharp pain if i breathe in or apply pressure to my abdomen but not as painful as it was earlier. Should i go to a walk in clinic to be checked by a doctor or just wait for the pain to subside?

hi..thanks for using HCM..
you are having severe sharp pain abdomen, associated with vomitting..
you have taken anagesics and antacids, but not releived..
it could be renal calculi/appendicitis..
see your surgeon for investigation and treatment..
you need to do CBC, ultrasound examination for the diagnosis..
all the very best..
