What Causes Pain Between Rib And Hip After Eating?

For the last 4 days after I eat I get this horrible pain on my left side under my ribs in the soft spot inbetween my lower rib and hip. Its a pain not like you have to use the bathroom more like a sharp hurt pain and it does not go away. Kind of feels like I eat too much but worse.

Hello,
I have studied your case and this pain can be due to two reasons.
1. Heart - It can be due to heart related causes. When there is increase blood pressure and heart has to pump blood pressure against extra load. It is dangerous and it needs to be taken care of as soon as possible. I would recommend you to get to ER and get ECG.
2. Other cause can be chest infection.
3. least common cause can be gastritis.
So I would suggest you to not to delay this.
