A member asked:
I have a sharp stitch like pain in the top of my belly hurting when i breathe what could it be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
When did it start?: Is it worse after eating, especially a fatty meal? Is it worse when you lay down? Is it better if you lean over a chair? Does it go anywhere else? Do you have a fever? Pain in this place could be gallbladder, it could be muscle pain, it could really be lots of things. If it does not get better or if you answer yes to my questions go to the doctor.
