What causes severe pain in back between ribs?
Patient: Hi Doctor,Of late I've noticed that I'm having severe pain in the back in between my ribs..both on the right side and the left side..it seems like its due to gas...I had similar kind of pain once almost 2yrs ago but recently the frequency has increased...its almost once a month or...Also one more thing whenever I have a heavy meal I have to rush to clear my bowels within half an hour..>So my query is should I need medical attention..is it like the initial stage of something..I would be really glad if you answer me..Many thanks! Doctor: Hello. Thanks for writing to us. The pain could be due to gastritis or related to a muscular issue. Take antacids and belching agents and have a muscle relaxant prescribed by your orthopedician.I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. Regards, Dr. Praveen Tayal .
