What's causing my tummy pain? (pic included)

Oh Mary you will get the same response on here as everyone does who effectively asks non medic strangers to come up with a diagnosis.

You need to see your GP.
With the best will in the world suggestions on here can only be speculation can’t they?

Good advice on here. Don't speculate. Phone your GP. Come back and tell us how you get on, hope you feel better soon.

It does sound like an ulcer Mary. so you need to see GP - they are still seeing patients with these kind of symptoms. They will possibly start you on a tablet to reduce acid and may do some tests.

oh dear, so dangerous anyone other than a qualified medical practitioner to attempt to make any sort of diagnosis.

Telephone your GP, talk to them on the phone, if they feel it necessary for you to have a proper examination, they will arrange it.

Best to do that and not worry.

Well she’s had it a month so doubt it’s trapped wind Clementine
Give your doctor a call mary

Yes sounds like a stomach ulcer. But see your GP, some ulcers nowadays can be cured with a course of antibiotics.

Upper left sided pain can be a number of things, definitely need to seek proper medical advice . May be due to something simple like trapped wind , or more serious so best to be examined by a qualified medical practitioner .

I wasn't expecting a diagnosis, just asking for ideas of what lies in that spot inside or perhaps others have had the same thing..

I m amazed how people come on here expecting a medical diagnosis
Ring or email you GP They are doing telephone calls and video calls so you can show them
No one on an Internet forum can or should give you a diagnosis
