What Causes Constant Tenderness In Abdomen, Slight Hardness Above And Below Navel With Back Ache?
hi i have constant tenderness in my abdomen and when i lay down its more tender. If pressed i feel a slight hardness above and below my navel. I have had this for a few months now and have continuous back ache also. I know this is not pregnancy as i tested and have had a laproscopy in october to help me to concieve. Its a little worrying to say the least. Thank you. Toni (30)

Hi and Welcome to HCM,
Do you have any previous h/o jaundice. Abdomen tenderness seen in conditions like appendicitis, pelvic inflammatory diseases, diverticulitis.
My recommendation is to do ultrasound to rule out masses in abdomen (stomach and pancreas). Are you obese? Did you rule out kidney stones.
Wish you speedy recovery
Thank you
