What Causes Pain And Swelling In The Left Side Of Stomach?
Hi, I have been having pains by the left side of my stomach below the rib cage. The place is slightly swollen and very tender. I started experiencing this 4 months after having a baby. Scan carried out did not reveal anything. I have a non hormonal coil fitted and my stomach is getting bigger by the day. Don t know what the problem is. I am still in pain
HI Well come to HMC Such a pain may be nonspecific and could be due to muscular spasm initially this can be managed with some analgesic medicine if and only if this is unbearable else just wait for some time and try to maintain good posture if this persistence then it may need some investigation with clinical examination, else this is nothing to worry, for the pain you can have Tab Ibuprofen 400 mg three times in day, hope this information helps, take care.
