What Causes Persistent Pain Under My Ribs?
Hi! I have a quick question...it may sound sort of silly.
I am a healthy 28 year old female with no history of health problems..I have a pain on my left side, and it feels like it is by my ribs. It may be a far-off and extreme worry, but my great- grandmother on my dad's side of the family died of stomach cancer. Am I at risk for stomach cancer because of my great -grandmother having it?
