A member asked:
I have cirrhosis and am experiencing both right and left flank pain. i am decompensated. is this pain associated with the disease?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly : Two common things that could cause bilateral flank pain in decompensated cirrhosis are ascities and spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (sbp). The latter is a more pressing concern and usually presents with fevers/chills, but not always, and requires medical attention as soon as possible.
