im 37 years of age, for the past two years i have been suffering with a discomfort on the right side of my stomach. just under my ribcage, it feels uncomfortable when i bend over, and sit, i only feel comfortable when i am laid flat, ive hadtwo ultrasounds for gallstones, came back normal, ive had an endoscopy, which showed a small erosion, and a polyp, but wasnt related to what im suffering, so now im having a laparoscopy to look into my lower bowel, i have constant wind, occasionally constipated, i get lots of pain in my right side and right shoulder, occasional heartburn, and few times have had reflux, my tummy has now started spasaming like the stitch pain after you have been running, please help as im now very frustrated, my sister has chrones disease, although she has very bad runs and gets boils on the bottom, i have none of that, im the other way if anything, but i do get an itchy anus frequently, please help....

General Surgeon 's  Response
HI.
Thanks for an elucidate history.
It occurs to me that you are suffering from costo-chondritis on the right side , hence you are getting pain while bending down, pains like stitch pain.
Both the normal ultrasound examinations confirm that the gall bladder, liver and pancreas are normal .
I would advise you to go for upper and lower GI Endoscopies ( Colonoscopy) instead of Laparoscopy.
A course of anti-inflammatory Medicines and steroid will solve your problem of costochondritis.
The endoscopy will guide for any further treatment. For Erosion , you can take PPI and will be fine.
I find this answer helpful
