428 | Suggest treatment for severe lower abdominal pain | Hi, My brother is a 25 year old healthy athletic guy. About a week ago he had some pain in his lower abdominal area for few days, it got so bad at one point that we had to take him to ER for pain management. The doctor requested a full blood test and an ultra sound. The ultra sound came back ok but in his blood test his CPK came up very high, to be exact it was 1740. We don t know what it means but being so much higher than average range worries us a lot. He hasn t had a chance to go back to doctor yet but is this scary number means anything bad? Thanks | <start> Dr. Hanif warmly welcomes you!Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic HCM. I have carefully worked through your case, and can well realize your health worries. Being your physician, I want to assure, I will take care all of your medical concerns.What CPK means?It is Creatine Phosphokinase and is an enzyme mainly found in heart, muscles and brain tissues.What these scary high numbers means?There is some damage to brain, skeletal muscles or to the heart muscles.Possibilities:Mostly the damaged muscles are the reason for leakage of the CPK into the blood and that is picked up in blood work. Usually physicians order this test to rule out the cause of chest pain to be a heart attack and to see the extent of damages done to the muscles. The high values are seen in brain and skeletal muscles disorders, lung tissue infarction (death), thyroid diseases.Final suggestion:-Your brother needs to go for a follow up with his treating physician (PCP) as soon as possible.Hope I answered all of your questions. Please don't forget to add your precious positive feedback to help me able to assist you better in future too. Have a wonderful time ahead. Keep in touch for a follow-up too to let me know if you have any doubts & need further assistance. I am available 24/7 for your help. Have a blessed time ahead. Regards!DR.

429 | Suggest treatment for severe rib cage pain and abdominal pain | I have had a pain under my left rib cage for almost 12 years. Around the time it began, I received a CT scan which revealed nothing. I lived with it for the next 11 years. Last year I mentioned it to my GP and didn t get much info. She tested my liver, pancreas, ect. levels which again were normal. It seems lately to be more annoying/painful/bothersome than it has in the past and seems to be changing in its symptoms. It began feeling like part of my lower rib cage was stuck under the rest of the rib cage, and upon manipulation, it actually moves, which the other side does not. This offers some temporary relief. Now it gives me abdominal pain that does not feel digestive related. This pain is located to the left of my navel about 1.5 inches and can extend up above my navel in between the breastbone and navel. It feels more of a pulled muscle, but is constant and is not only occurring when the muscle is pulled. I also sometimes feel the pain radiating to the back side almost exactly where I feel the stuck rib pain and sometimes I feel a twinge on my left side just below the ribcage. All of these feel related to one another. I have a physical on the 25th, and I want to know what questions to ask and/or what tests to ask to have done. As a side note, I recently had the symptoms of a UTI including hematuria and flank pain. I noticed increased flank pain before the symptoms of painful urination and hematuria, but I attributed it to my ribcage thing because it felt similar, only more intense. After visiting the dr, she confirmed a high pH and I began antibiotics to clear it up. I received the results a few days later and my doctor stated no specific bacteria was found. However, my symptoms have cleared with regards to the UTI. Please help, it s gone on long enough! Thank you:) | <start> dear friend,pain at the the left rib cage since 12 years- could be due to inflammation of the costochondral junction (where cartilage and bony part of the ribs unite) which is called as costochondritis. this condition is usually relieved by simple pain killers. persisting symptoms can be treated with locally injecting low dose steroids. please mention your age and gender when you are next question. <end> | Suggest treatment for severe rib cage pain and abdominal pain I have had a pain under my left rib cage for almost 12 years.

Abdominal pain can be cramp-like, achy, dull, or sharp. It is often called stomachache.These studies suggest that people who get frequent headaches may be predisposed to gastrointestinal problems. Digestive conditions, such as irritable bowel syndrome and celiac disease, also may be linked to migraines. However, more research is needed to understand these connections.If you experience nausea, vomiting or diarrhea with your headaches, talk to your doctor about treatment options. Treating the headache usually relieves gastrointestinal symptoms. <end> | What causes abdominal pain along with headaches?

441 | What causes pain on left abdomen and back? | Am having bad pain on lower left back and abdomen. Gave left kidney to my brother 20 years ago, otherwise I would say I have kidney infection. Both X-rays and cat scan do lower left abdomen were clear and I don t believe my doctor knows what to do next. | <start> Hello I have gone through your question and understand your concern. I would suggest take up a complete urine examination along with along with urea and creatinin levels.

Pain can also be caused due to urinary tract infection, and can be treated easily with the help of antibiotics based on urine culture/sensitivity. Get the diagnostic test done and update your reports at HCM or consult your family physician. Good luck. Hope your concern is answered. Thank you. <end> | What causes pain on left abdomen and back?

447 | Suggest treatment for severe abdominal pain | I have suffered increasing abdominal pain for 5 days plus. The pain gets worse when I try to get up lying down with a tendency to increase especially on my riht side. The area is not sensitive to touch and all pain disappears momentarily whenthe area is pushed in hard and released quickly. Any suggestion? | <start> Thank you for writing to Health Care Magic.I can understand the concern that you have towards your health. I am here to help you further and with the next steps.Based on the location of the pain, I think that you have a pain related to the appendix. This is the most likely cause. Also, you can given of pushing in sort of indicates a sign in appendicitis. In appendicitis, there will be inflammation of the appendix and this is very painful and usually very debilitating. The pain is felt at a point known as the McBurney's point.The first few steps you need to take are to see a Doctor and get a Ultrasound and a blood examination done. The USG will be done to check for inflammation of the appendix and the blood exam will look for raised White Blood Cells. Both these and a clinical exam will confirm the appendicitis. Once confirmed, the appendix will be removed in a simple procedure which is done often.All the best and please follow up with more queries if any.

Read and understood your concerns. Noted your history of pain in the abdomen, inability to evacuate the bowel and are a known case of diverticulitis. Amoxicillin is not the drug of choice in such a condition.You may need an antibiotic active against intestinal pathogens like Ofloxacin or cefixime, metronidazole and pro and prebiotics. I would advise you the following in such a situation:Get a clinical evaluation and examination by a general surgeon to have a clinical diagnosis. To undergo the tests like CT scan, of blood, urine and stool. And then only to proceed for proper treatment. I hope this answers your query. Consultation needs charges and the set up cost money hence the charges. <end> | Is Amoxicillin the right medicine for lower abdominal pain and diverticulitis?

459 | Suggest treatment for slight pain in lower abdomen | Right now i am having slight pain in my lower abdomen. My stomach has been hurting since yesterday when i got up in the morning. It wasnt hurting that bad. it was tolerable so i just took some motrin and went on with my day. After being awake for probably 5 or 6 hours, the pain started getting worse. It went from tolerable to unbearable in about 5-10 minutes. The severe pain probably lasted somewhere between 30min to an hour. I was in so much pain that i didnt even notice how long it was. I was almost crying in pain. I laid in my bed and i was doubled over in pain. I could hardly move and it hurt to breathe. It eventually went away after 30 minutes or so but it hurt so bad. It was the worst pain i had ever felt. I was so close to calling 911. The only reason that i didnt was because when i was thinking about calling 911, the pain was starting to get a little better. The severe pain lasted from 30 min to an hour and when it started to calm down it went from unbearable to tolerable again in about 5-10 minutes. I still have a slight pain right now but its nothing too bad. Im just scared that it might happen again. Anybody have any idea what that might have been. The severe pain is gone now so should i still be worried. And by the way I dont have a fever, im not throwing up, and i dont have any other symptoms. And im and 18 year old female if that helps with anything. Should i still go to the doctor because the pain im feeling now isnt really bothering me.

478 | Suggest treatment for extreme abdominal pain | For the last 6-5 years I’ve been experiencing extreme abdominal pains, sometimes in the middle of the night which leaves me in 10 out of 10 pain, nausea, chronic Diarreha which can go on for up to 5 hours at a time. The next day I would have a sore stomach – it felt swollen, I couldn’t eat or I would get pain (even though I’m so hungry), and I would be extremely lethargic. It happens every few weeks so going to see a GP wasn’t something I could do, I would have to be in the middle of these ‘attacks’ for them to see how sick I was. Plus I was embarrassed… But in April 2013 I decided that I’d bite the bullet and go and see my GP, I found it hard to describe what was happening to me without it sounding like I was getting food poisoning every few weeks. I was sent for bloods and tests: Celiacs disease was ruled out, B12 and Iron was very very low (well below low levels) and my Calprotectin was high but not alarming. I saw a Gastroenterologist where I had a Colonoscopy and Endoscopy. The GP said I had a very small ulcer in my terminal ilium – which meant very mild Crohns Disease (mild?!?!? Holey crap I would hate to know what Bad was like, I’m not sure I would survive it). He wasn’t sure if it was crohns though so my slides, info and findings were taken to a regular gastroenterologists gathering where they could discuss my case (there were also microbiologists and a few other smart people like that) and they came back with ‘yes, mild crohns because of the small ulcer’. (yet again… mild? I feel like I’ve been cut to shreds with a rusty box knife and my guts are on the floor and being jumped on!) I was put on Pentasa – probably one of the worst things ever!, I was in pain constantly, my hair fell out in clumps, I was having silent migraines (one pupil extremely large, and the other was a pin prick) and I was on the verge of vomiting all of the time. I was told that the side effects would eventually stop. A month later I begged to stop taking this horrible drug and I started feeling better within a few days. My doctor told me that he wanted me to have a scan of my stomach, unfortunately at the time my Father passed away suddenly and going for a scan fell off my list of priorities as I had a family to look after (as my mother passed away a few years before that), I had to sell their house, and pay for burials, lawyers etc etc (none of which caused a flare up… not stress reactive) A month went passed and I got a letter from my Gastro guy saying ‘don’t bother with the scan, if you haven’t done it by now then you obviously don’t need to’ so that was nice....! yes my health is important to me, but I was in another part of the country attending to my grieving family – which is far more important, thank you very much. A few months later I went to a dietician to see if my flare ups were due to food – I did a FODMAPs diet to eliminate food groups, nothing caused a flare up, so that was a waste of a few hundred dollars! I did a fructose drinking test – apparently I can’t have fructose and that might be my trigger. I saw a nutritionist to tailor a diet for me, and I am still being horribly sick. There is no pattern, so nothing in my diet is triggering this. The problem I have is… I don’t have fructose (glucose syrup, corn syrup, invert syrup etc) in my diet, I pretty much stick to a very natural diet, veges and protein. I am very careful with everything I eat, I don’t eat rubbish, I exercise, I drink lots of water (no fizzy or orange) and yet I have spent the last two days metres from my bathroom and not being able to go out. I would love nothing better than to go to the beach or a mall or hang out with friends. I can’t even stand up straight without my stomach hurting!! (I just moved a tiny bit now and it feels like I’ve just been roundhouse kicked in the stomach) I am in constant pain and I don’t believe that ‘mild’ crohns should be this painful – In the middle of my ‘attack’ I feel like I am dying (I know that sounds like I’m being dramatic, but until you’ve been here then you can’t judge me). The pain is so intense that I sob uncontrollably, I lie on the bathroom floor because its cold, I want to vomit (sometimes I do), and I am as white as a ghost. I just have to wait for the pain waves to stop. It’s been two days so far, and will probably take that long for me to come right. I logged onto a crohns forum on my phone while on the floor one day, and mentioned how ill and in pain I was, looking for support in my darkest hours on the bathroom floor. And they were so mean to be because they said that I knew nothing of pain until I’m on ‘X’ amount of drugs and had ‘X’ amount of surgeries. They even said if I was in that much pain I shouldn’t be on my phone (I was sick for 72 hours!!!, I’m sure I’m allowed to be on my phone in that time) So I feel let down by people who should know!! Apparently those people are the gate keeps of the pain scale…. Who knew? I feel let down by my Gastro person. I feel as if I’ve been given the shove because I have ‘mild’ crohns. I read through the crohns disease forums and I don’t get all of the symptoms that those people have – boy I feel sorry for those guys! But I haven’t lost weight, I don’t have any blood, I don’t lose my appetite, I don’t have depression, no abscesses, ulcers or fissures. The only thing I have in common is a small ulcer in my ilium, pain and Diarreha. I have a good friend who has crohns and is on Hurmia yet our symptoms are different. I don’t know what to do anymore. I don’t believe I actually have crohns, I think I have an ulcer because something else is going on! I will go to another gastro person, but if I don’t work, I don’t get paid, so aside from the fact that I don’t trust doctors, I want to know as much as possible before going in to see someone else who treats me like I’m a ‘mild case’. The pain I am experiencing is not mild, in fact if anyone told me it was mild during my attack I would actually punch them in the face. I’m lost… sore, tired and let down by so many.

Looking forward for ur detailed reports ...... <end> | Suggest treatment for extreme abdominal pain For the last 6-5 years I’ve been experiencing extreme abdominal pains, sometimes in the middle of the night which leaves me in 10 out of 10 pain, nausea, chronic Diarreha which can go on for up to 5 hours at a time. The next day I would have a sore stomach – it felt swollen, I couldn’t eat or I would get pain (even though I’m so hungry), and I would be extremely lethargic. It happens every few weeks so going to see a GP wasn’t something I could do, I would have to be in the middle of these ‘attacks’ for them to see how sick I was. Plus I was embarrassed… But in April 2013 I decided that I’d bite the bullet and go and see my GP, I found it hard to describe what was happening to me without it sounding like I was getting food poisoning every few weeks. I was sent for bloods and tests: Celiacs disease was ruled out, B12 and Iron was very very low (well below low levels) and my Calprotectin was high but not alarming. I saw a Gastroenterologist where I had a Colonoscopy and Endoscopy. The GP said I had a very small ulcer in my terminal ilium – which meant very mild Crohns Disease (mild?!?!?

479 | What causes severe abdominal pain after colonoscopy? | I had a colonoscopy two days ago and test results were fine. Yesterday my abdominal area didn t feel right but the sight pain went away. Today I bent over after some light gardening work and had a severe pain in my back.

I can't pay I have no money pleasr help me | <start> Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you!Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns. It is definitely a gastroduodenal Ulcer and the black stools, heart burn, pains (no matter in which area of abdomen it is) all suggest that you need an immediate gastroscopy. Black stools are due to bleeding ulcer and you feel short of breath due to low hemoglobin.I preferably suggest you to consult a Gastroentrologist right away. He will go for a gastroscopy after careful physical examination and assessment. Also ask him to go for a Complete blood count to see your hemoglobin levels.The treatment will be according to the diagnosis.

I want to know if it s something to worry about or if it s just a temporary thing. | <start> Welcome at HCM I have gone through your query and being your doctor I completely understand your health concerns. Are u menstruating? Is there any discharge?? Any burning micturation? Any change in colour of urine? Any history of renal stone? Any fever ? Any change of bowel habit? These all questions should be related which aids in making your diagnosis. If its first time you should not worry but if it comes again with any other symptoms do see your doctor.

497 | Can the lower abdominal pain be due to hernia? | hello, I had some lower abdominal pain that I had checked by my GP, he ran Blood, Urine and did an Ultrasound and they all came back clean...I realize I may need more tests if it persists. It kind of happened one night and hasn't gone away in over a month...I feel it mostly at night when sleeping...I work out regularly and do a lot of core training, is it possible that it could be a hernia? | <start> sir, you are examined by a doctor and if he does not suspect hernia, then there are less chances For it.

498 | What causes severe pain in lower abdomen? | Husband, 65, has been having severe pain in his lower right upper abdomen and into his lower diaphragm where his hiatal hernia is. He has suffered from chronic acid reflux (GERD) for 50 yrs. He has an endoscopy every 2-3 years. He is also having extreme difficulties in breathing.... he just can t seem to get enough air. All has been going on now for about 3 months. His doctor ran every blood test and did an EKG. All tests were fine. Although he was diagnosed with PVC. But his pain worsened and so we thought it might be his gall bladder and went to emergency yesterday, Nov 9, where they ran even more blood tests, another EKG, did a cat scan and ultra sound to rule that out. His blood pressure was 165/113 and continued at that all day for 7 hrs in emergency. Again, all tests came back clean! Can his acid reflux, hernia and this PVC all be connected? They sent him home with no diagnosis, other than they think it s his acid reflux causing all of his symptoms and suggested that he go in for an upper GI / endoscopy to check things out. Today, Nov 10, he continues to have a horrible headache cuz of the high blood pressure and pain in his upper right abdomen/lower diaphragm area. Baffled as to what is causing all his symptoms and why they would even send him home with that high of blood pressure... they said they weren t really concerned about it and that it wasn t life-threatening. He is on blood pressure mediations. Please give me advice or your opinion on what could be going on. FYI: He has seen 2 physicians and 1 cardiologist so far... all with Kaiser. | <start> Ma'am, your husband's blood pressure and PVC can be related and as you said he is on treatment for hypertension but still his BP is raised. What medications he is taking for BP? Is he under some kind of stress. You have to add some drugs like metoprolol for BP and rablet L for GERD. Besides it changing lifestyle to stick to healthy habits do have beneficial effects. Try to destress him if it is so. <end> | What causes severe pain in lower abdomen?
