A member asked:

I have a sharp pain in mid abdomen it goes all the to the back on the left what's wrong ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Referred pain: The type of pain could be local abdominal problems, but pain shooting to L back sounds more like referred pain from pancreatitis. I suggest you go see a gastroenterologist and find out what exactly is the reason for the pain, with bloodwork and imaging
