General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi. the commonest causes of pain t in the area you mentioned are ruled out by an ultrasonography. You have a pain for the last 8 years- if this is constant site with the repeat of the symptoms over the area, another probable cause can be a problem in the spinal cord, may be a disc or so. I would advise to undergo a thorough check-up by a surgeon for clinical evaluation with the help of your proper history. You may need an MRI of the upper abdomen and spine of thorax.
