Should I see a doctor? Im having a severe sharp pain below my naval on my left side. It hurt to touch it or to even move.This was followed by a burning sensation all around my lower abdomen and lower back.Then I started having a dull pain under my right rib cage. And, during this my throat started getting tight. Now I just feel nauseous.All this happened around 2am last night while I was in bed. The pain gradually went down but I feel sick to my stomach and lightheaded now.Oh, Im 19 and female.
Hi ! Good evening. I am Chat Doctor answering your query. Yes dear. You must see a doctor at the earliest possible seeing the intensity of your pain abdomen. Your doctor after a basic clinical examination of your abdomen, might advise you for an ultrasound abdomen, a serum lipase and amylase, CBC, and in case you are active sexually, a serum Chat Doctor test as well. Further management would depend on the report of the clinical examination, and the investigations. I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Chat Doctor.
