#ShouldIWorry – Right Side Pain Vs Left Side Pain

27 October 2021

#ShouldIWorry if I have pain in either the left or right side of my abdomen? 

Knowing the location of your abdominal pain, whether it’s on the left or right side of the abdomen, can better indicate where you may have a health condition.

Organs on the left side of your abdomen that might cause pain include:

  • Pancreas
  • Stomach
  • Small intestine
  • Colon
  • Left kidney

On the other end, organs on the right side of your abdomen that might cause pain include:

  • Liver
  • Gallbladder
  • Stomach
  • Small intestine
  • Colon
  • Right kidney
  • Appendix

While pain is never normal, it is not always serious. Identifying the location will allow you to seek the proper doctor for treatment.
