What Causes Persistent Pain In Lower Left Abdomen?
I m having pain in my lower left abdomen for the past couple of days. it seems to get worse when I lie down. It has woken me up the last two nights. It subsides during the day. When I massage the area with the tips of my fingers I can localize the source of the pain.
