What Causes Rib Cage Pain?

I have right rib cage pain. I have been diagnosed with gastritis and duodenal infection. Is the pain caused by these? I have completed the antibiotics. Why doesn't the pain go away? I'm afraid of gallbladder problem but the ultrasound didn't show anything.

Hello

Probably you have intestinal gases. Use Maalox orally for some days.

Take care
