Hi, You had pain in the middle of the ribs, back,and side of the rt rib. Liver tests clear.
It appears to be the gastric irritation, due to peptic ulcer, or irritant foods.
I prescribe to my patients with such symptoms omeprazole, one in empty stomach, and antacid gel two times a day.
I advise you to avoid spices, junk foods, and oily foods.
Thank you.
