What Does The Mass At The Bottom Of My Rib Cage Indicate?

For the past few weeks I have been feeling like a mass or something is right at the bottom of my rib cage. At first I thought it was just from me gaining a little weight, but I haven t gained that much and I normally gain in my gut and thighs, not under my brest. I can t feel anything to the touch, but it is just uncomfortable.

Pathologist and Microbiologist 's  Response
Hello,

Mass at the bottom of the rib cage needs to be clinically assessed. An X-ray chest is required to look for any bony growth.

I suggest you to consult your primary healthcare provider for clinical assessment and thus management.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Shailja Puri, Pathologist and Microbiologist
