What Causes Pain Below Left Ribcage ?

I am experiencing pain just below my left ribcage. aafter eating some foods it causes pain there and in my back. sometimes my stomach becomes hard and digestion takes quite awhile. Probiotics and aloe seem to help alot but it never comes on all the time. Could it be gallbladder?

Hi,

It is more likely to be related to stomach problems; gastritis or ulcer.
I would advise you to see your GP or gastroenterologist. The gastroscopy should be done for proper diagnosis and treatment

Hope I could help you

Wishing you good health
