Question : I have mid sharp back pain & stomach bloating & sides of my stomach have pain. Any suggestions on what’s going on?
Brief Answer:
You should be investigated
Detailed Answer:
Hi
For any such complaint of Abdomen, basic investigations like Plain X-ray Abdomen in erect posture, Ultrasound Abdomen should be done.
In your case,sharp back pain may be due to Musculoskeletal cause.Bloating of stomach and sides pain may be due to Naproxen.Please stop the drug immediately.
You can take Tylenol 650mg 4 times a day if the back.pain is severe.
If the symptoms of Abdomen subside after stopping Naproxen, further investigations are not necessary.Otherwise, you should consult a doctor and proceed further.
Nothing to worry.
