Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Sharp Pains In The Left Side Of The Body?
My 18 year old daughter has had sharp pains on her left side of her trunk. These started about 2 weeks ago and have been on and off since then. She gets some relief when she changes position. She has had a kidney stone in the past, but these pains are not as severe and she got no relief from change of position with the stone until it passed. Do you have any suggestions as to what type of doctor I should take her to?

Hello...Your daughter seems to have pulled a muscle..... Further clinical evaluation is necessary in order to confirm... An orthopaedic or a sports medical help would be better.... Hope you got a satisfactory response
