Suggest Remedy For Pain In The Rib Cage Area

Hi,



I have just been to my doctors as i am having pain on the left hand side by by ribcage. I started getting pain on Tuesday early hours of the morning and it still hasnt gone. I am eating much more than i was and after finishing an evening meal i can eat another im always hungry which i unusual for me.

A couple of weeks ago i was very constipated but that went after a week or so.



The doctor said to me its trapped wind as one side of my stomach is harder than the other. Im not saying the Doctor was wrong but when i said could i be pregnant she didnt reply.



I still am wondering if i am as i really have not been feeling myself lately or this really is due to trapped wind?



I'd be very greatful for a second opinion.



Many Thanks



Josie
