Hi,
Hi your pain under rib cage left may due to various reasons related to various organs particularly spleen, intestines or sometimes musculoskeletal pain from ribs itself. But based on your age there should be a suspicion related to heart conditions as well depending on other risk factors like Diabetes, Hypertension and Smoking.
Take Care!
