What Causes Violent Bouts Of Vomiting Followed By Pain Under The Ribs?
I threw up 3 nights ago pretty violently. The next day I noticed a pain underneath my ribs (towards the bottom and side). The pain area is only about the size of a finger/thumb press and pressing on it makes it worse. It is constant and not made worse with movement, breathing etc. Any thoughts? Could it be coincidental and the start of shingles or could I have strained a muscle?
