What Causes Pain In The Right Abdomen And Back Area?
For over a year I have been having moderate to severe pain in my right side from my abdomen area into my back, severe enough at times, it is hard to get a deep breath or even get out of the bed. I had a chest xray to check for possible lung cancer but that did not show anything other than some arthritis in my spine, do you have any suggestions as to what may be going on.

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you are suffering pain in the right abdomen and back area. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like liver disease , hepatosplenomegaly , gallbladder disease , appendicitis , abdominal aortic aneurysm , disease of the kidney or disc problem . I would suggest you to consult gastroenterologist for proper examination . Doctor may order stool test endoscopy and ultrasound . Doctor may recommend gallbladder surgery prescribe antibiotics along with anti inflammatory . Doctor may also refer you to nephrologist for kidney problem or orthopedic surgeon for disc problem . For now take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain .
