Question 2

i have upper right quadrant pain only when i bend over since 3 days, what could that be?

Accepted Answer

: Try to recall if you had done anything 1-2 days before the pain occurred which can affect the abdominal muscles (strain). Right upper quadrant is the location of the liver and biliary tract but body movement less likely precipitates the pain from this organ. You can do a therapeutic diagnosis by taking Ibuprofen OTC 200 mg x 3. If pain subsides significantly, muscle strain is likely the culprit.

Quadrant perio: The deep scaling and root planing procedure might be broken down into 4 quadrants. For example the upper right side of the mouth is one quadrant.

This allows for only a part of the mouth being numb and makes for more comfort.

SEE a doctor: That is a question that needs a lot more information before i can even begin to guess.  What makes the pain come on?  How severe?  What makes it better?  Which side?  When was your last menstrual period?  Have you had any nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or constipation?  Any fever?  Any burning with urination, frequency or urgency?  And i could go on.

Pinched Nerve: Sounds like you have a pinched nerve in your back.  I would suggest seeing a pain/spine specialist to evaluate you further to evaluate what level and what can be done to treat you.  There are interventional treatments besides medications and surgeries that might reduce or  eliminate the pain altogether.
