Left-sided abdominal pain causes:

• Spleen
• Kidney stone
• Intestinal problem
• Heart
• Pancreas 

The pancreas is located on your left side under your ribs. Your gallbladder is located on your right side under your ribs. There’s a nerve called the phrenic nerve under the diaphragm on both sides that goes right up into your neck. Pain could be referred from your pancreas all the way up your left side—causing lower left abdominal pain. 

What can affect the pancreas causing left-side abdominal pain?

1. High carb diet
2. Gallstones
3. Alcohol
4. Bad food 
5. Medications
6. Infection
7. High blood calcium 

What you should do for left-sided abdominal pain:

1. Intermittent fasting
2. Get on the healthy keto diet
3. Consume more vegetables

I live with chronic congenital pancreatitis. It is an AWFUL illness. I used to be hospitalized constantly. They removed half my pancreas (similar to Whipple) which helped a little. But what helped even more is the anti inflammatory diet and intermittent fasting. Thanks for helping ppl like me. Xo

I had pretty much pain in the beginning when I started keto. It's much much better now. So my pancreas is healing very well. I'm 6 months in now :)

Can’t believe hiatal hernia wasn’t mentioned, as that occurs on left side under left rib cage...and certain foods and junk makes it worse...with gas, bloating, breathing issues, heart flutters..similar to gallbladder/pancreas issues..hiatal hernia I think is what weakens these organs from performing their duties by interfering with hcl, enzymes and pinching kinking the vagus and phrenic nerve...still cannot believe how underestimated this stomach herniation syndrome is and how often it’s ignored!

[ytrebiLeurT]

Had much pain on the left side, I changed my eating habit, ate a lot of vegetables, sprouts, seedlings reduced carbohydrates to zero = no pain anymore...
