Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a constant stabbing pain in my right side moving just around to my back. It is in line with my belly button. This came on me suddenly last night and I could not sleep with the pain. Today I am having difficulty moving/walking around with the pain. Pain is bearable when sitting. I would rate the pain as an 8. Thank you in advance for your help John
From the details you had described it could be some sudden sprain to your back muscles. Some times the pain could be due to some problems with stomach or urinary pathology. If the pain is from the sprain of your back muscles initially I advice you to cut down your activities and rest for day or two. i would like you to consult your orthopedician and get some analgesics to relieve pain. If the pain is settling of then start on exercises to back.
thanking you Dr.A.Mohan krishna.
