Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have pain on my right side under my ribs .. it feels more on the side under my arm and sometimes on my left.. its very dull. I also have pain with my back on both side.. pain only last for a few seconds then comes back.. my ribs on the right side feel tender but I keep pushing on them.. I had my galbladder removed when I was 19 and I am now 24 .. I still have what feels like galbladder attacks but the rib pain feels different.. my Dr put me on acid relfux medication and although I have bad acid and heartburn I'm still scared.

Infectious Diseases Specialist, Dr. Arun's Response
Hello dear,
Thank you for your contact to health care magic.
I read and understand your concern.
I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.
Your pain is most likely to be because of acidity you are having.
There is minor chance of some lung pathology you should also investigate yourself for the X ray chest PA view. This will look for any lung pathology you have.
You can also think of taking strong antiacidity drugs like rabeprazole. Please take above drug under your doctors guidance.
You should start doing some mild exercise daily. Than gradually you should built up to strong exercise. This will make your muscle strong. So by this way muscular pain will be controlled.
I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.
Thank you, Dr Arun Tank Infectious diseases specialist, HCM.
