WHEN TAKING A SHOWER I CAN NOT STAND UP STRAIGHT BECAUSE IT HURTS IN THE UPPER ABDOMINAL AREA - THE SAME APPLIES TO WALKING THE PAIN FEELS LIKE I AM DOING STOMACH CRUNCHES AND OVERDOING IT - ALSO I HAVE A HUMP IN MY BACK THAT MAY ATTRIBUTE TO THE REASON FOR THIS PAIN. IS IT SOMETHING THAN CAN BE CORRECTED - IT STARTED FEELING THIS WAY ABOUT 4 YRS AGO - I WALK A SHORT DISTANCE THEN I HAVE TO SIT DOWN AND CATCH MY BREATH FROM THE PAIN - IT S NOT LIKE A SICK PAIN BUT A PAIN THAT IS CAUSED BY SOME TYPE OF STRAIN
You should mention your age and however, Before going to treatment you have to investigate for followings:1. Your hemoglobin level2. Ultrasonography of upper abdomen to exclude any hepatosplenomegaly or hernia3. The nature of the hump ?solid ? Cystic ? bony possible a FNAC test should be performed to ascertain the nature of the hump. Regards,
