What Causes Squeezing Type Of Pain In Upper Abdomen?
I m having a squeezing type pain that feels as if it is rolling from the right side of my upper abdomen to the left side. It started around a week and a half ago. I can t hardly eat because of it. I have a hiatel hernia. I have also had a total hyster with a bowel resection in 2009 due to endometriosis. Last thing was a tummy tuck last dec. should I continue to hope it will go away or seek medical attention?

Hello,
Well, while adhesions or hiatal hernia CAN cause this, without an exam.
I can only give general information and cannot say in your particular case, but generally, while those two are the most common causes, serious vascular problems can also cause it and it is a big cause for concern.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
