Suffering From Sharp, Chronic Lower Left Abdominal Pain, Getting Worse. What Should I Do?
Hi, I m an 18 female suffering from sharp, chronic lower left abdominal pain for over a week now. At first I thought it was just stress , but it has been constant everyday and has been getting worse. I only get relief sometimes when i position myself differently. It hurts a lot too when I apply pressure or exert force, like going to the bathroom. Although I have had no trouble with going.
