I have a mass just under my ribs on the right side and it feels like it is spreading it is starting to cause issues with my breathing when I try and sleep. I have had 5 surgeries since 2010. 3 of them on my spine I have a time distinguishing the pain from my back and my ribs
Hi, Good Morning. I am Chat Doctor. S.CUTS -super-specialist- From India-attending your health query to Chat Doctor virtual-online Clinic--I studied your query in-depth and Understood your concerns.-In my opinion -Remedy would be-a-Consult a Surgeon-who find out the cause of it-? Gall bladder disease? Hepatitis-as mass is under right ribs and increases while sleep and presses on your breathing.-b- I would advise -CXR/USG /MRI to fix the cause of the painful lump?c-To distinguish from the back pains, trial treatment with Tb NSAID -if pain reduces-possibility of back pain ?related to spine is more. IF the pain remains still, possibility of Liver / Gall bladder/ Lungs disease-is more.-Wish you early recovery. Wellcome for any question if it worries you still.
