I have a pain on the left side of my abdomen about 3 inches from my navel, I have not knocked or hit the area, there is no marking to suggest trauma, I get a bruise like feeling when i press the area. but cannot feel any other pain apart from when pressure is applied to the area. what could this be? I have been experiencing this for about a week. but have no other noticeable symptoms
