Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Tiredness, Weight Gain And Right-sided Discomfort In The Rib Cage?
I have been very tired the last couple months, I experienced weight gain, I get these discomforts on the right side of my rib cage. For the last week I have been waking up with a headache. A few months ago I was having a lot of debilitating muscle spams on back on the same side as where I keep having discomfort. What is going on with me?
Hello there I have read through your question and would like to tell you that sudden weight gain can be a sign of Hypothyroidism. I would advise you to get a thyroid profile done . Regarding the right sided discomfort and occasional pain , it can be a sign of cholecystitis. An USG abdomen will help to diagnose it. I hope that answers your question . If you have any further questions please feel free to write. Thank you for choosing healthcare magic.
