Abdominal Cramping
摘要
Here we present a case of abdominal pain in a middle-aged female. The differential diagnosis of abdominal pain is broad but can be narrowed down by a thorough history and physical that localizes the pain to one area. Your H&P will then guide your subsequent workup, including lab testing and imaging. This case will address the necessary history-taking and examination for a patient with left lower quadrant pain, as well as the diagnosis and management of one of the most common causes of abdominal pain.
