What Causes Bulge Along With Pain On Center Upper Abdomen?
I have a buldge with pain on my center upper abdomen. I think it may be a hernia, and had two ultrasounds, and several ct scans and ultrasounds don t show anything. I heard hernias can not be detected with ct scans and ultrasounds. Is tha true. If so, what can detect a hernia?
Your symptoms seem to be related to hernia. A physical examination is usually needed to detect hernia. If it is needed, it can also be detected through ultrasound or ct scan.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
