What Do Black Dots Under The Left Ribs On An X-ray Report Suggest?

Hi Doc Last month I went for an Xray for my lower back due to the discomfort I was feeling after long periods of standing on high heels. The Xray found no fracture or inflammation, however this pain subsides if I take anti inflamattory suppositories like diclofenac. My problem is that after looking at my Xray again yesterday I noticed a black dot just under my left ribs, what could this be?

Hello,

Most probably gas, gut gas. Send the report to me to analyze myself.

Try to avoid standing on high heels and see the difference.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
