Could Pain In Right Side Under Rib Cage And Forearm Be Related To Corn Intolerance?
I have been on a food elimination diet for 3 months. I just re-introduced corn in my diet and have been taking hormone pills to regulate my hormones (since I was on birth control for 7 years). My right side under my rib cage has been hurting more and more especially at night and now my right forearm really hurts like I've hit my funny bone. Is this related to a corn intolerence?

Less likely. A food item leading to pain that to only in specific part of body is just our association in my opinion. I will advice you to wait and watch if pain is minor it will subside because sometime pain occur due to muscle spasms during day to day activity. If pain in severe than you should consult your physician.

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
The corn may not have relation to the pains, but you would have increased the quantity of the spices.
The distribution of pain in the right hypochondrium, and the right fore arm suggests the cervical spondylosis.
I advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have an X ray of cervical spine for conformation.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms neurotropic injections for 10 consecutive days, ofloxacin,and mefenamic acid.
wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
