Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello , sometimes I feel pain in lower rib cage line specially left side . If antacid syrup is taken pain gradually relieves and after then I often feel itchy feeling inside my left back rib cage . Though nothing serious but is it anything dangerous ?
I suggest you to do X-ray and if it is normal maybe you have GERD. I suggest you to avoid caffeine, eat healthy and small portions of food. Also you can do upper endoscopy if you don't feel better.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Blerina Pasho, General & Family Physician
