Can constipation cause discomfort on upper left abdomen and upper left back? no other symptoms
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe for abdomen: but your history of recent acute bronchitis may be more what is contributing to your upper left back issues, especially if there was any coughing or chest discomfort with that bout. It's important to have the source of your constipation checked out, and get that squared away by your PCP. If you haven't pooped in a few days, that can create discomfort in the abdomen, if you continue eating.
