What Causes Sharp Pain In The Upper Side Of Stomach After A Ileum Resection?
I had an ileum resection 5 years ago as a result of being diagnosed with Carcinoid cancer of the small intestine. I am now experiencing dull constant pain and sharp pain when coughing,sneezing or sitting up, in the area of the surgery. As well as pain on right upper side radiating around to back. Any reason for concern or idea what may be going on? Thank you!
