What Could Pain Under The Ribs Suggest?
I m 32 female. I have been having some tightening underneath my ribs on the right side off and on for the last few weeks. Tonight I had an episode that just started out of nowhere. I had extreme pain under my right rib cage and under my right clavicle. I could hardly move or straighten up. It hurt to breath. Think it s my gallbladder...?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You may have some muscle spasms, gastric pain due to acidity, lung disease or some other cause. You should go for examination. If needed go for x ray chest and ultrasound abdomen. It will give you exact diagnosis.
Then you should take treatment accordingly.
