What Causes Sharp Stabbing Radiating Pain Under Ribs And Stomach Area?
I am having sharp stabbing pain just under my ribs on my right side. Sometimes it shoots across to about the middle of my torso. Last night it shot into my stomach area and it felt like I was having a contraction,(I am not pregnant), it hurt so bad it make me throw up and curl into a ball.

hi.
it is best if you consult with a doctor for clinical evaluation (medical and physical examination). it could just be a muscular pain but other etiologies must also be ruled out (such as gallstone formation). further diagnostic evaluation such as imaging tests and management (medical and/or surgical) will be directed accordingly.
hope this helps.
good day!!
