What Is The Treatment For Intermittent Pain, Discomfort And Pressure Sensation In Thighs?
For over a year I have been having intermittent pain, like an uncomfortableness or pressure in the upper right hand side, behind my ribs. I can press the area and gag. I also have pain in my ear whenever I get this uncomfortableness and I have been told that this is referred pain. I have a daily bowel movement but it is hard and smells odd. It also always floats. I have had an ultrasound and endoscopy and my blood tests are normal. I eat well - lots of vegetables and drink plenty of fluids.

Hello,
It can be due to neuropathic causes like sciatica.
As a first line management, you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopedician and plan for an MRI scan.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
