What Causes Pain In Left Side Of Abdomen?

Yes I have pain in the left part of my abdomin. And like I read in the question above this dizzyness is strange I had it for about 4 days and now I am having the pain. I am 58 years old and 5'6 inches weighing 187 lbs and have alway been in good health not on any medications other then aspirin for knee pain. Do you think this is something that will pass and how common. I do not have insurance so I am hoping that it will pass.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
The cause of pain on the left side of the abdomen can be:
Colitis of the sigmoid colon. considering your age .,
Can be a colonic cancer with intestinal symptoms which develop gradually.

Dizziness can be due to the weakness due to the problems you are having or can just be a Psychological factors.

Since you do not have an Insurance , you can visit the local Doctor, get examined and ask for the most necessary test of blood, urine and stool and ultrasonography.

Take the course of medicines that he might prescribe you. Get investigated to get a proper diagnosis and treatment.

I do not think that this is something that will pass.
