What Causes Pain And Discomfort In The Upper Abdomen On The Left Side?

Hi Doc.. My question is that I am recently experiencing some pain and discomfort on my left side upper abdomen and especially underneath the rip cage. I feel sharp pain and crushing while I am sitting on the floor. I am also experiencing that I spit more often with a white and sticky saliva, while I feet irritation from my throat and keep trying to clear my throat while coughing.
