Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My husband just out of the blue has sharp pains that seem to be from his back around to the front on his left side. He says the pains move in the front area of his body. This has been going on since yesterday afternoon. Just came on all of sudden. Had been fine all day up till that point. Any ideas?
If the pain goes to the front left side of his chest then getting an EKG will be mandatory. Once a cardiac cause has been ruled out we can suspect causes like gastritis, peptic ulcers, etc. Please take him to a doctor immediately.
Best wishes.
