Pain in left side of abdomen below ribs
I have had a constant pain in the left side of my abdomen since last four days. It is not an unbearable pain, but it does exist. As soon as I touch or press that area, the pain increases. What doctor should I show this to? Appendix is usually on the right side, so not sure if this can be related to appendicitis. Thanks Dhruv
