[|Human|] I have had pain in my left flank area for a couple of weeks on and off. Tends to wake me up at night/early am. Really no other symptoms, no weight loss, etc, although I do struggle with excessive gas regardless of diet. Dr blows me off calls it IBS but i m concerned it may be something more serious as pain is quite uncomfortable. Feels like someone poking me in the side firmly with fingers.
[|AI|]  Hello. Thanks for writing to ChatDoctorI have studied your case and history. I will advise you to investigate like Ultrasonography pelvis and abdomen. If required CT abdomen may be donation time start antacids [proton pump inhibitors like] omeprazole -D. There can be possibility associated gastric infection if you are having fever? Or diarrhea? Try to maintain body fluid by increasing fluid intake, take easily digestible food. You need to consult your treating doctor for further investigation. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health.
