I have this feeling right at the bottom of my ribcage.It s not painful . It feels warm and feels like bruise but with a pin needle type feeling. The feeling is also on my back on same area. Eating or drinking doesn t affect it and no fever or any vomiting, basically just that weird feeling I ve had a history of colon cancer, duodenal? ulcers, Hiatal hernia. Any guesses?

you may need endoscopic evaluation along with further investigation like CT scan.
Some time nerve compression can lead to rib pain.
PET scan will help you to see for any metastatic lesion.
