Hello

Thank you for trusting HCM

Dear if feel in ball in rib caze why don't you have get it done ultrasound scan?? Usually the medicine that gave before colonoscopy can induce bowel movements so they may be painful don't worry. Podsible causes may be cholecystitis, lipomas, Enlarged tip of rib, rt colon swelling etc.. Please consult your doctor and get one ultrasound scan of abdomen and get treated accordingly.
