What Causes Constant Pressure Under The Right Rib Area?
I m suffering from globus & lpr due to gerd from taking too many antibiotics. My stool is blonde in color and I have constant pressure under my right rib area . A check of my gallblatter was clear as was my heart and lungs. The PA said could be gastritis of peptic ulcer. I ve tried everything over the counter nothing works. Any ideas how to stop this?

Hello,
I think you may need to do a stool culture. Taking too many different antibiotics may have damaged the intestinal flora and increasing predisposition for intestinal infections.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
