What could be the reason for abdomen pain on left side?
Patient: I'm having pain in my abdomen on the left side.  I have seen a doctor & it is not a hernia.  I felt a sharp pain at work when I was doing some heavy lifting 2 weeks ago but the pain is at times unbearable.  I'm not sure what to do at this point.  The doctor provided me with some pain medication but it isn't really working. Doctor: Hi...it could be a ureteric calculi or a ligament injury following your weight lifting... get a usg abdomen done to rule out calculi...Dr. Ashish Verma
