Suggest Treatment For Pain In The Ribs

I continue to have pain in my right side between my belt and ribs. I thought this was another kidney stone but had a CT that showed nothing. A few days back I ate a breakfast with some gravy after which I was nauseated. This has happened several times after eating something greasy. Also, have sharp pain across the upper chest area. Could this be a gallblader?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It could be due to conditions like costochondritis.

As of now, you can use analgesics/anti-inflammatory combination like aceclofenac/serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief.

If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.

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

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
