What Causes Pop In Upper Right Abdomen?
Earlier today I was sitting with my legs crossed, as I uncrossed them I felt a pop in my upper right abdomen just below the ribs. It didn t hurt just felt strange but my mom and daughter both said they heard the pop as well. Now several hours latsr I have an unsettled feeling in the same area like I feel like I might throw up but never do...not sure if I should be concerned or not?

Hi,
It can be muscular twitch or spasm due to any abnormal range of movement and may resolve slowly but for reassurance ultrasound abdomen may be done to rule out internal cause.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
