For about 3 weeks I have had a severe ache on my right side at my waist. The waistband of clothing causes greater discomfort. Ice helps temporarily, so does heat; Aleve has no affect. Pain abates when I lie down. I thought it was muscular because I recently resumed water aerobics, but now I think it could be something else. Any suggestions?
Hello, Welcome, and thanks for sharing your concern I went through your query, and I feel, you need to differentiate between muscular pain which is aching in character, related to movement and is only on certain movement will reduce with time, visceral pain is more colic type, not related to movement and may occur at rest also, getting a USG done may help you to rule out any abdominal pathology hope my advice would have been useful, in decision-making regarding your treatment, still if you have any clarifications or doubts feel free to contact back. Thanks.
