A member asked:
Ct scan shows nonspecific mild nodularity/thickening of medial left adrenal gland.having mri this week. is this why i have pain there? all else normal

Unlikly cause o pain: It is very unlikely that you are experiencing pain from your adrenal gland. The adrenal gland sits at the top of the kidney and produced hormones. You can get bleeding into the gland which can be felt as pain, but that situation does not appear like nodular thickening. The follow-up MRI is used to exclude a mass as the cause of the thickening.
