In this video, we’re going to talk about abdominal pain that radiates to the back.

There are different situations that can happen—you may experience abdominal pain on the right side, left side, or center that can refer pain to the lower back or even up in the upper back or your shoulders.

If the pain is going to the right side, it’s usually more liver-related. This can happen because of a problem with the gallbladder, bile duct, or liver. It could be a gallstone or a blockage.

On the left side or center, you are likely looking at a pancreas-related situation. It could be a situation called pancreatitis. Symptoms of this include:
1. Upper abdominal pain
2. Upper abdominal pain that radiates
3. Upper abdominal pain that worsens after eating
4. Nausea
5. Tenderness
6. Bloating

The most common causes of pancreatitis are alcohol, gallstones, or high calcium levels. 30% of the time, there’s an unknown cause for pancreatitis. One article suggests it could be primarily bile sludge.

The cause of bile sludge is cholesterol buildup due to low bile. The best solution to this problem is to take bile salts.

On top of using bile salts, you also want to address the underlying cause of low bile. Causes of a bile deficiency include:
• Low-fat diets
• High-carb diets
• Poor microbiome
• Fatty liver
• High estrogen
• High cortisol

Healthy keto and intermittent fasting are the best way to combat these issues.

You're a hero, Doctor. I listen to your videos daily even if the information doesn't apply to me. Love your information!

I lost 60% of my pancreas, gall bladder and spleen because the hospital told me if I let them install 2 JP drains in pseudocysts in my pancreas. The hospitalist said they could send me home with the drains and they would dry up in 2 weeks and be removed. One did and the other never stopped draining 400ml a day for 10 months. My GI sent me to OHSU in Portland, Oregon where they performed the cholestomy, pancrectomy and splenectomy.
The pain of pancreatitis was undescribable, it radiated into my neck, back and stomach with vomiting. I am forever diminished, chronic fatigue rules me. I definitely do not drink alcohol and haven't since my first, only and hopefully last experience with pancreatitis. DO NOT LET A HOSPITAL put a Jackson-Pratt drain in your pancreas if you are presented the option. I wish I had never allowed them to do it. My quality of life is not at all the same.

You are just amazing, Dr. Berg. Thank you for your dedication to health education on this channel. 💜 👍👍🌞

I’ve suffered for 7 years of this pain in my back - around my bra strap. Just to the right of my spine.
I have been convinced it’s a small stone trapped in my pancreas bile duct - but the doctors can’t find anything on the CT scan or Ultrasound - this video has cemented my beliefs.
I suffer from this daily. ❤

I'm literally sitting here, recovering from pancreatitis. thanks, this may be the trigger i needed.

[alifiavirra]

Thank you so much for the explanation, Dr. Berg. It is very helpful! I have chronic pain on my left side body, sometimes back pain and I have gallstones. Now I know the connection between them. Please keep healthy and God bless you!
