What Causes Swelling And Pain In Under Left Rib Cage?
I have a bulge of fat just below my rib cage - I run and go to the gym but appear to be unable to lose it I have an ache under my left side rib cage - a little nag its been like it for a couple of weeks - any thing to worry about. ( Ihave been under a lot of stress at work)
Swelling and pain under ribcage has to be because of torn muscles or contusion. Therefore, I suggest consulting a physician for physical examination, diagnosis and treatment.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
