I have been to the Er for sharp pain on left front side. They did MRI and it showed inflamed colon. The Er dr put me on antibiotics and said I needed to schedule a colonoscopy. This has only been a couple of days ago and I am no feeling like I have a dull pain in my right lower back. Still waiting to have my colonoscopy. Should I go back to Er because of the dull lower right back pain or just wait a couple of days to see if it worsens or goes away?
Hi, Thanks for writing in. From your symptoms and initial clinical/ MRI scan assessment, a diagnosis of colitis has been made. For further confirmation colonoscopy is indicated. You may wait until colonoscopy is done and go with reports to ER doctor. Please continue taking medications as suggested. Hope this helps.
