Patient's question:
Right side of the abdomen connected to the stomach skin is painful when pressed, what is the situation?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if you experience chest pain, it is recommended to first check whether it is due to lung infection, pleurisy, tuberculosis, or pneumothorax, as these are all possible causes. Additionally, consider whether it could be due to costochondritis or costal cartilage inflammation. Sometimes, it is also important to be aware that gastrointestinal ulcers and pancreatic diseases may also lead to this symptom. It is also necessary to check whether there are any issues with the liver and gallbladder through ultrasound and liver function tests. An electrocardiogram should also be performed to determine if there is a possibility of myocardial ischemia. Wishing you good health.
