What Causes Discomfort Below The Ribs On The Right Side?

I have discomfort below my right ribs when I breathe in. Sometimes I feel like I have a lump in my throat. I have difficulty taking a deep breath. I went to the ER 3-4 months ago and they did several tests. They said my heart is fine. I feel better when I sit quietly.

Hi,

I think you should be tested for gallstone in the gallbladder.

Liver chemistry needs to be done and also an abdominal ultrasound.

If you send me the results of the tests you have done I can give you a more certain opinion.

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

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka,
