A member asked:

What abdominal conditions causes left shoulder and neck stiffness in a 23 year old male?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

None: None with the very rare possibility of inflammatory bowel disease causing spondylitis and shoulder issues. While other bowel diseases such as Whipple's disease can cause aching but not in the areas you describe. The symptoms you experience are much more likely to be unrelated to any GI issues.
