Question 1

what organs are on the left side of abdomen?

Accepted Answer

Several: The spleen is on the left side.  Portions of the intestines are on the left side.  The pancreas is mostly on the left side.One kidney is on the left side and one half of the genital tracts are on the left side.

Question 2

what organs are on the lower left side of my abdomen? when i lay down i can feel some lumps that feel like organs. doesnt hurt, im just concerned. i dont feel anything on my right side. i am also very skinny if that has anything to do with it?

Accepted Answer

Can give Dr a call: Lower abdomen has abdominal wall muscles, part of the large intestine (colon), ureters from the kidneys to the bladder, part of the small intestine, ovaries (lower down), etc...  In a college-aged person, lumps such as tumors are rare. A common cause of left lower abdominal lumps is a collection of poop due to constipation. If a person takes a laxative and poops out, maybe the lumps vanish.

Question 3

if my appendix was on the left side, but my heart is also on the left, do i have situs inversus? would/could other abdominal organs be transposed too?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily: Situs inversus (changed sides) can be partial or complete. As the intestines develop, the eventual location of the large intestine and other related contents may also be flipped.A process called a laterality sequence may have duplicated or absent structures (spleen) and heart defects. You likely had an isolated anomaly. Further study could confirm or exclude any associated abnormalities.

Question 5

left side next to belly button pain. swollen all of a sudden, hurts to touch. pulled muscle? hernia? any organs on that side i should worry about????

Accepted Answer

Doctor can examine: If one has very uncomfortable tummy pain, and is normally in good health, plus is not pregnant, the possibilities include: pulled muscle of the abdominal wall, bad constipation, stomach flu, appendicitis (usually right lower tummy), colitis, kidney problems, etc... Most people with moderate (more than mild) pain, or recurring pain, need a doctor's evaluation to be sure it is not something urgent.

Question 6

what organs are in the lower right side of the abdomen in a female?

Accepted Answer

: Appendix, ovary, intestines, bladder.

Question 7

what organs are in the left lower quadrant of the abdomen?

Accepted Answer

Very few: Your descending and sigmoid colon. Your left oviduct and ovary, if you were a woman. Depending on whether or not there are large fibroids, or a baby, the uterus may sit in the left lower quadrant.

Question 8

why did it feel as if the two organs on both sides of my abdomen were bouncing during an mri of my head and neck? is this normal? safe?

Accepted Answer

Nervousness: If it only occurred during the MRI it is not likely an issue.

Question 9

pain in the lower left abdomen for about 3 months. had ultrasound all organs ok but cyst in left ovary got vagynal ultrasound no cyst .what can it be?

Accepted Answer

Ovarian cysts: The left ovarian cyst seen on the ultrasound could cause your left abdominal pain. Depending on the size, they are often observed and can resolve over time. In your age group, other causes are less common. If this pain persists, a further workup is needed. If everything is negative, then you should discuss treating this cyst to see if the pain resolves.

Question 10

high c-reactive protein and low left abdominal pain. ct scan of abdomen, ultrasound of reproductive organs, colonoscopy all clear. nsaids no relief. ?

Accepted Answer

This test is limited: CRP has limited usefulness as a test. Yet it may be related to your abdominal pain. Your gynecologist is the best person to help you. I hope you do not have endometriosis. Ask your gynecologist to check you for this problem since all other tests are not showing anything obvious as the cause of your abdominal pain.
