Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
Your liver and gallbladder might be having cysts and polyps ,but you didn't have pain there. So they can be looked after afterwards.
The reason for pain in the left rib cage may be the pain of the pancreas, spleen, stomach, colon, kidney, ureter, etc.
I advise you to consult a surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts,and
protein rich foods to hasten the recovery.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
