Suggest Treatment For Lower Rib Cage Pain

Hi, I have a constant pain starting from my lower ribs to my belly button it feels like I have done a million sit ups. However every some time the pain intensifys and constricts and becomes unbearable. This all started on the 4th day of what apperared to be common cold symptoms. I had coughing on day one, running nose day two, headaches day three, and then on day four this started. It is now day five and its still here and seems to be getting worse. Im still regular when going to the bathroom. It does hurt to poo or pass wind. And for some reason drinking coke eases the constricting? Help?

Hi Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you may be having some kind of viral fever.Treatment of it is analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. Vitamin B and C help in recovery. Omeprazole is needed to prevent acidity caused by drugs. You may need further investigation by chest x ray and ultrasound of abdomen. You can discuss with your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
Wishing you a good health. Take care.
