The bottom of my left rib cage is swollen and sore. Lymph node behind left ear has been swelled up to the size of a pea for about 3 days now. I have had a rash on my elbow for years now. It started to heal and became more like a scar after my dermitologist did a biopsie on it. He determined it to be Granuloma Annular. I had blood work done shortly after and everything came back fine. This was about 4 years ago. Could this be connected? I have also recently started a new position at work and have been very stressed out.
Bottom of rib cage swollen and sore is not at all a good sign. One needs to rule out if it's a superficial skin infection or deeper tissues or lungs. There could be resurgence of the previous episode also 4 yrs back do not take stress and an x ray of the chest needs to b done the least. Bloods fine is a good sign
