Ma'am,

Pain in this area would arise from -

  • musculoskeletal
  • heart
  • lung
  • spleen and colon

You would need proper investigations to find out the cause of pain.The cause is more likely to musculoskeletal or heat because of the numbness associated.Painkillers give temporary relief and do little to get rid of the actual cause often masking the symptoms.This makes diagnosis difficult.

Therefore I would ask you to get yourself checked up.Hope this has been useful.
