Sharp Pains In Lower Rib And Calf Posted: 06-09-05 15:06pm
I have been getting bouts of sharp pains
in my left side, bottom rib area (at the
front), and at the same time, get a sharp
pain in my left inside calf. The pain is
moderate in intensity, but does bring me
to a halt. The pain lasts for 2-3 seconds
at a time. I generally get a bout of
10-20 of these at a time, and then they
subside.
My doctor has suggested that it may be
linked to a back problem that I have, but
has never encountered this before. He
seemed to find the fact that the two pain
sites are so far away, a bit strange, and
slightly unbelievable.
