What Causes Pubic Bone, Umbilicus, Back And Ribcage Discomfort With Bowel Sounds?
HI,
Over the past 2 years, I've had a reoccuring and sometimes continues discomfort ranging in area from just above my pubic bone, rt of belly button, lower back and recently just under ft rib cage. Along with that, my gut has started making noises (again under my rt rib cage) - sounds like a hungry stomach, but it happens just as I eat. Some days, I don't feel anything. Others, it feels like an attack of somesort. I will have bad diahrea at times - ofter following food that's too rich. Had a kidney stone (rt side) 3 years ago now. Yes, I need to go to the doctor. My dad died of cancer this year...there's just that fear, which is stupid, because you have to go! Thanks

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Most possible reason is alteration in gut flora mechanics, digestive enzyme giving intestine spasm, etcetera.
A thorough workup with basic lab tests, ultrasound of abdomen and pelvis, colonoscopy as per the case evaluation will guide precisely about the case management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
