Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have been having dull and sharp pain in my upper right abdomen right under my rib cage but closer to the center. I had this pain before last month but after a few weeks it went away. I ve noticed that today my lower abdomen feels heavy. any suggestion?
HI. Any other associated symptoms like nausea , vomiting , fever, loose motion or so? This can be due to infection of the liver or gall bladder or colon on that side. You need a high resolution ultrasonography to know what is going on inside and to take antibiotic course. If need be as per reports of the USG , you may need surgery .
