Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pain under the rib cage along with constipation . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like liver damage , pancreatitis , angina , pinched nerve or gastric problem . I would suggest you to consult cardiologist for proper examination and rule out serious condition like angina . Doctor may order ECG, TMT along with complete blood profile and troponin t test . I to confirm the diagnosis . Doctor may prescribe isosorbide dinitrate , beta blockers , furosemide , sedative and aspirin . Doctor may also refer you to orthopedic surgeon if there will be broken rib or muscle . For now continue taking advil , stay calm and apply warm compresses to back . Doctor may also refer you to gastroenterologist for stomach problem, doctor may prescribe laxative along with proton pump inhibitor .


Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
