What Causes Pain In The Back Radiating To The Belly Button And The Chest?
Have a pain that starts in my back on right side, but seems to move also to my front between belly button and chest. Seem to notice it a lot when I eat. Under a lot of stress right now thought it might be ulcer. When it gets to the front feels like someone is twisting it tighter. Heat seems to relax my back

Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to a gallbladder inflammation. I suggest to do an abdominal ultrasound and a complete blood count for further evaluation. Meanwhile, I suggest to use anti inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen 400 mg to relieve the pain.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
