Pain on the left

[Wannabeamotherof9 1]

I have a pain going from the middle of my back on the left around my side to my left half of my abdomen.. It feels like a kidney infection but I've never felt it like this going around to the front of me. When i move my knee towards me, or get up from sitting or sit down or bend/squat down I'm literally ready to cry... Has anyone else experienced this? Probably going to the emergency room tomorrow off it isn't gone

Yes, time to go to the ER. Whatever's going on if it hurts enough to bring you to tears, that means it's time to seek medical help. I hope you feel better soon.

Keep us posted. I'll say a little prayer that it's nothing more than Constipation. =)

Please, please, please don't wait until tomorrow to go to the ER!! For years, I was a triage nurse; The pain as you've describedPlease, please, please don't wait until tomorrow to go to the ER!! For years, I was a triage nurse; As such, I've seen people ignore serious symptoms which can then become worse...or bigger...more difficult to treat. (Trust me there. I'm The Queen of that list.

The pain you are experiencing is your body telling you "Hey!! Can we please have our party here? C'mon -the tents and tables are all set up. Can we begin wreaking havoc..........now??" Pain will taunt you day & night, and just keep increasing, making the problem worse and worse!

Pain is our body's way of getting our rapid attention to whatever is causing a problem.

If it turns out to be a minor thing, no harm done. Your conscience will be eased up,and whatever the cause, it can be nipped in the bud.

But.....if it does turn out to be something *not good*, it's best to get it ID'd and treated ASAP!!!

Please, please, pleeeease try to get to an ER tonight, if at all possible.

Best of luck to you - keep us posted. Thanks.

@@Mumsicle what do you think the pain could be

[Mumsicle 22]

It could be a UTI, or kidney infection, or some post-op pain just hangin around like a pest. We're all drinking so much Fluid that it might be silly to ask: Have you been peeing more often, feel like your bladder hasn't emptied completely?

Do you have a fever? Feel nauseous?

Any possibility of a pulled muscle recentlyń? Neck or upper back pain? Numbness or tingling?

[Mumsicle 22]

Could be an ovarian cyst...who knows?? No one WILL know 'til you've been evaluated -in person- by a qualified healthcare professional.

Please -Don't go by me!! I don't know your medical history, lifestyle, or tendency toward developing certain conditions, or what meds you may take, if any.

Do keep us updated!! It's gonna be oooookay.
