Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i have a what i would call a swelling mid abdomen left side that has grown larger over the last 5 years. i get pain deep inside the swelling often. lately the pain radiates backward anddownward into lower left back. am 43 year old male, 220lbs, 5ft6in. with moderatly high blood pressure
I would advise you not to neglect this swelling. Since it has grown in size and has become painful, get a thorough check up done. Get an ultrasound abdomen done to know exactly where this swelling is arising from. Then get a physician opinion.
