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.
What Causes Intermittent Pain Under Rib Cage And Right-sided Lower Abdomen?
I have been having a lot of pain beneath the lower part of my rib cage for months. It comes and goes while I am laying down or sitting. I have also been having pain in the lower right part of my stomach. That has been coming and going for the past few days. I would really like to know what would be causing these pains. Thank you for reading this and I hope that you reply soon.
I strongly suspect a gastrointestinal (GIT) abnormality, most probably associated with the intestine. Conditions like irritable bowel syndrome, diverticulitis, celiac disease, etc; all need to be adequately ruled out. A colonoscopy and elaborate discussion with a doctor will be warranted.
Best wishes.
