What Does Abdominal Pain On The Left Side Indicate?
I have a pain or irritation in my stomach on the left side. It feels like something is festering. Not really hurts but it is just present. I had an X-ray and am scheduled for an ultrasound this week. Will the ultrasound show what the X-ray could not.

Hello
Yes the ultrasound will definitely show, what x-ray has missed. Pain in the left side can be due to multiple reasons. Renal colic, colitis, gastritis to name a few. Meanwhile take tab dicyclomine for pain
