What Could Be The Reason For Bloating, Pain Under Rib Cage After Eating?
Pain under the left rib cage especially after having something to eat. Feels like bloating and wind trapped in the area. Gentle rubbing of the area seems to help relieved the soreness for a short while. Constantly returns after eating any food or drinks such as coffee or tea.
