Hi,
Feeling extremely painful and hurting more when you move could be related to muscular-skeletal pain. However, inner abdominal organs problems should be ruled out. For this, you need to run further tests:
- abdominal ultrasound
- urine analysis
- liver/kidney function tests
Depending on the tests results, specific treatment will be prescribed.
