Luq is also tender to touch
Hi. Thanks for your query. Noted your history of diverticulitis 10 years ago and now pain in the left upper quadrant for 3 days with fever and tenderness also. Obviously the first probable diagnosis will be diverticultis and a CT scan of the abdomen will be diagnostic. Consult the Doctor and get started on proper line of treatment.
