A doctor has provided 1 answer
Primary Care: Begin with a primary md or an urgent care md to evaluate and obtain more info. He or she will be able to determine which specialist (if any) is best for you. If abdominal, you may be referred to a surgeon or gi. . If more cardiac in nature they may refer you to a cardiologist. If more muscular or joint related, perhaps an orthopaedist. A good primary md will be able to coordinate ur care.
