See your Dr.: Pain in the left upper Quadrant can be caused by: stomach ulcers, pancreatitis, IBS, chrohns disease, a kidney stone, diverticulitis, or a problem with the kidney or spleen. If the pain persists more than a week, you should see your Dr to follow up on the persistent pain and discuss possible causes and treatments. There are other tests that can be run and imaging that may give more details.
