[|Human|] I have a dull pain on the left side of my abdomen at the height of my navel that has persisted for about 10 days. i can feel that an internal organ is swollen. It is giving me back and hip pain as a result. I want to see a doctor but am not sure what organ is involved and therefore what doctor to see. Is it likely to be my large intestines? If this is the case, I have a colonoscopy scheduled in a week and will wait.
[|AI|]  Hello, Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor. Forum. If I were your treating doctor for this case of dull pain on the left side of abdomen, I would come up with these possibilities, This includes.1 Left renal stone, diagnosis can be confirmed by ultrasound of abdomen as pain is in the abdomen as well radiating to the back. This is the site where kidney lies .2 Left intestinal tumor as pain is dull, diagnosis can be confirmed by ultrasound of abdomen with emphasis over this area. Colonoscopy also help in this case. But I would like to get in ultrasound of abdomen before colonoscopy.3 Amoebic colitis is the another cause of this pain, so physical as well clinical examination will find out the reason of this pain. In my opinion first consult a physician and get his opinion regarding kidney stone. Good luck.
