I am experiencing a weird sensation under my upper left rib cage area. I have children and can relate to like a baby moving . I am 50 years old with history of good health. Also have gone from 135 lbs to 148 lbs in the recent months (not sure if related but wanted to mention).

Hello,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.

Most common cause for unexplained weird sensation under my upper left rib cage area are:
-Faulty sleep posture leading to localized muscle spasms/twitching
-Vitamin deficiency: start taking healthy diet.
-Injury to chest
-Anxiety: associated with excessive worry, sleep problem and restlessness.
-Acidity: Tingling more after spicy food

Apart from that, to be in safer get yourself evaluated to rule out any cardiac problem.

Wish you good health and all the best.
