Suggest Treatment For Pain On Rib Cage
Question: I have pain under my right rib cage, not all of the time though. I also have gas and feel I need to go to bathroom. It helps when I break wind sometimes. It's 2 days now
Brief Answer:
it could be related to gall bladder
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Your symptoms are suggestive of chronic gall bladder inflammation or problem with digestion in the biliary tract.
I would suggest you to take a complete ultrasound scan of the abdomen visualizing the gall bladder and the liver.
If these are normal, then it is most likely acid peptic disease. These are the possibilities in you.
Meanwhile, you can take simple antacids like Omeprazole with domperidone to prevent and treat the symptoms.
Eat healthy diet with more vegetables and fruits.

ok great thanks
I will try the antacids first to see if that works.
This first started after eating chicken on 8/11, I believe wasn't cooked all the way through, could that have anything to do with the issues I have? When I break wind or burp I feel great for hours
