How Can Sharp Pain Above The Navel Along With Abdominal Swelling And Nausea Be Treated?
I have sharp pain above my belly button, just to the left. Pain increase's with deep breaths and is positional, (hurts worse laying on my side). Pain has increased over the past 24hrs, my abdomen is very swollen and I'm somewhat nauseous. It doesn't feel stomach related. Tylenol and Advil don't seem to bring relief.
