Abdominal problems

25m. I’ve had a weird pressure/pulling feeling in my upper left abdomen and side right underneath my rips. Sometimes I feel like I can feel a burning/hot sensation when I take a deep breath. When I mean left I mean when I look down at it. I am pretty big in the gym and I am have been trying my first hard core cut this year and have been for a while. So my protein in take is through the roof right now. After telling the doctor this they suggested that it was constipation. I took some milk of magnesia and let’s just say. I don’t believe constipation to be the problem. I went to a different doctor and they thought it to be a back strain and gave me some muscle relaxers. I don’t believe this to be true either as it doesn’t hurt to move in any way shape or form. I have pulled and torn muscles throughout my history and it doesn’t feel muscular. I did a xray and everything looked fine but the doc told me my liver may be a bit enlarged but my enzymes were fine so he didn’t seem concerned. I’m a social drinker, never drink throughout the week. However I have been very social the last couple of months due to weddings and trips. However this weird pressure/pulling feeling has been going on for about a week and half now. Can anybody possibly tell me what could be going on?

Side note: doctors didn’t find anything concerning with my blood or urine samples.
