What Causes Sharp Pain In The Lower Abdomen On The Left Side?
I am having significant sharp pain in my lower left abdomen, right above my hip bone that is starting to radiate up and under my rib cage and toward the center abdomen. I have no fever and am not constipated. I have a history of kidney stones on my right side but not my left kidney.

Hello,
Causes of pain in the lower left abdomen may be benign, such as gas pain, or can be more serious, as in the case of an infection.I suggest you to do some examinations to confirm the cause such as a complete blood count and a stool test.Meanwhile, you can use Buscopan three times a day to relieve the pain.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi,
