Pain and pressure in upper abdomen for 4 months, palpable lumps, mostly on ul quad. have pain that feels like someone is squeezing my diaphram all day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
LUQ anatomy: Anatomically, the left upper quadrant (luq) of abdomen includes: spleen, pancreatic tail, stomach, descending duodenum, splenic flexure of the colon, associated vessels. Don't forget the diaphragm, heart, and lower chest are pretty close by. The abdominal musculature, ribs, and skin can all contribute as well to localizing luq pain. An exam is appropriate for clarity of diagnosis and treatment.
