1.Persistent distension and pain in the left upper abdomen: It may indicate spleen problems. Recently, there have been cases of fitness enthusiasts rupturing the spleen capsule due to overtraining.
2.Radiating pain in left chest: The symptoms of angina in women are often atypical and can easily be confused with stomach pain. The latest data from the National Health Commission shows that the incidence of myocardial infarction among women under 35 years old has increased by 17% year-on-year.
3.Feeling of distension in left lower abdomen: Judging from the menstrual cycle, data released by a tertiary hospital in early November showed that 30% of patients with ovarian cysts mistakenly thought they were gastrointestinal problems when they were first diagnosed.
