What Causes The Pain In Left Abdomen Below The Ribcage?
My name is Oren ,I'm 5'9" weighing 160 lbs. I don't really have a medical history besides that I had my appendix removed last year. I've been getting these pains in my left abdomen right below my ribcage for the past 14 years. This pain always happens if I'm sitting up (watching a movie for ex.) the only relief I can get is by leaning to my left.I even have an indentation on my abdominal muscle almost like one of the ab muscles is sunken a little leaving an indent.when I work out my abs it feels like the left side doesn't really get a work out almost like I'm not using that muscle...please help me I been to all kinds of doctors and no one gives me any type of answers.
