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 had a sharp piercing pain in my side, it felt like it was in my liver, or somewhere around that area. When I would try to sit down, my but and lower back would almost go numb. It only stopped hurting when I was in a curled up position, I couldn't even sit or lay down comfortably. What could this be?
Hi, You have not mentioned your age. If you are elderly then there might be having osteoartheritis in yourlumbo-sacral spine giving this problem. There might be having chance of osteoporosis or osteomalacia. Go for x-ray lunmbosacral spines. Do back extension exercises. Take calcium, vitamin A and D supplements. If you are young then it might be due to lack of exercise or stiff back muscles. Ok and take care.
