Hi,Dear,Good Morning from India.Thanks for your query to HCM Virtual Clinic.
-I studied your query in depth.I understood your concerns.
-In my opinion-the right lump below ribs-appears to be wart?sebaceous cyst?lipoma-dercums disease?epigastric hernia?or a boil?.I would require more information by clinical examination.
-Still from the given facts it appears- to be-epigastric hernia -as you have belching and gases and bowel issues with it.If not the bowel issues and belching could be due to un-related and other reasons.
-Remedy-Your doctor would advise-treatment according to cause.
Hope this would help you to get normal health fast.
Wellcome to HCM again for any more queries.Have a Good day.
