What Causes Painful Bulging Vein Across The Ribs?
Seems like I have hard vein across left ribs vertically. It is quite painfully if I poke it. When I stretch my self to the right, I can see that the vein is bulging a little bit. I realise that these few days I did not poop that much. What is my problem doc? Thanks
