What Causes Severe Pain In Back And Right Side Ribs?

Hello. I am having a lot of pain in my back, right side below my ribs. Hurts to reach or stretch, I was told a few weeks ago by my Gyn they found a hard mass on my colon but I m still waiting for my insurance to approve a CT scan. This pain started in my back like this today, usually I have pain in my pelvic area and my hip.

Hi,

You better speed up the process of insurance and get the CT scan as soon as possible. I want to know about your locality for guiding you better, for now take pain killers with antacids or apply any pain killer lotion to the area. However, the first thing is to get an investigation done.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
