What Is The Cause Of Spasms Going From Rib Cage Down To The Hip,can It Be Due To Some Problem With An Organ?

I am having spasms on my midsection below my right side rib cage down to my hip on my right side. It catches me so severely to make me wince and cry out. I have to catch it and bend. I wonder if it is a muscle problem? This is the second time in the last month that it has happened. I have taken pain relievers to make it subside a little. I hope it is not a problem with any organ.

Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi you have spasms on your mid section below rib down to hip on (R) Side .the pain is severe and you have to take painkillers for it to subside. In my opinion this kind of pain originates on having stones in kidneys or ureter and the pain in this is spasmodic and very severe. I suggest you take plenty of water , anti spasmodic medicines and get an ultrasound of abdomen to diagnose stones.
