question: Hello, For over one year i have been experiencing persistent discomfort in my upper left abdomen, actuallu it seems that is the top of my rib cage. I am also feeling a concentrated spot of pain in y upper left side of my back-if I press on this spot(no lump felt) it is sore for a few hours. I don t know if they are related? I did have a complete Robotic hysterectomy approx. 2 yrs ago. which involved an incident where the Physician nicked my intestines in a couple spots-could this be related?
