Suggest Treatment For The Lump Formed Below The Ribs

I had a small lump around the size of a ping pong ball forming just under my right rib cage. I pushed on it and it felt as if it moved into my stomach. The lump is no longer there but my right side burns and I have horrible stomach pain. What should I do?

Hi and welcome. I don't think that lump could have been moved to stomach and this is probably just subcutaneous cyst or lipoma. your symptoms may have been caused by gastritis or GERD so you should do endoscopy torule this out. Wish you good health. Regards
