Hi all im (22M) feeling a bit of dull discomfort and a bit of swelling/ rib protruding in my left rib area near stomach I’ve been to the doctor a few times about the issue and also did a colonoscopy which didn’t found anything i also experienced my poop been green a few days ago when i went to use the restroom right now im so frustrated and tired of feeling this way the only time it kinda gives me a ease is when i drink plenty of coconut water which also makes me pass alot of gas.
I agree. Your spleenmay be enlarged for some reason. Also, you should get your liver enzymes checked to. Green stool isn’t normal. Persist in getting answers. Doctors gaslight people now. They do it to save the system money.
Thank You im at the doctor right now awaiting a blood test results i did recently i only hope it’s nothing serious i will keep u updated
Enlarged Spleen (splenomegaly)

HiI'm so sorry you have been in pain for over 2 months, it's horrible isn't it? Could your GP refer you for tests such as MRI, gastroscopy etc? Just a thought.

I also phone my consultants secretaries who are very helpful.
Know Your Risk For Liver Cancer
Hi Derron, did they tell you what was the bulge on your left rib? I have had an almost identical one for the past 2 weeks.
Yeah I got it checked out and it was my left shoulder been higher than my right shoulder causing my lower rib area to have a bulge.
That’s comforting, it looks almost exactly like yours. My left shoulder is also a bit higher than my right shoulder now, since I injured my right shoulder back in November. Hopefully it’s the same thing,

What Are The Symptoms Of A Hernia?: Elvira Klause, Md, Facs: General Surgeon
A sign that is easily visible is an overgrowth on the abdomen observed as an abdominal mass or lump between the ribcage above the stomach.
In the majority of the cases, an abdominal lump can be an innocuous growth that can either go away on its own or through mild treatment. However, sometimes, it can signal a serious underlying condition.
In any case, if you see a lump on your belly, it is best to see your medical practitioner to pin down the cause and further course of treatment.*
Pain Under Left Rib Cage: 6 Causes & What To Do
The most common underlying problem that can cause an abdominal mass to appear is a hernia. A hernia occurs when part of an organ, or fatty tissue, squeezes into an area where it has no business being in.
All organs inside the abdominal cavity are surrounded by connective tissue and muscle to form the abdominal wall. If there is a weak spot – a fascia – in this wall, the part of the organ closest to it may squeeze through this newly formed opening to enter the adjoining cavity.
A weak spot may occur in the connective tissue or the muscle as a result of pressure, for instance, when you lift a heavy object.
Pancreatic Symptoms And Signs To Know
Epigastrium is a part of your abdominal cavity that is just below the rib cage. In this condition, a lump may be visible just below the sternum, or breastbone.
When the abdominal wall in this area weakens, fatty tissue pushes through the weak spot and forms a lump. The only symptom, if any, of this kind of condition is tenderness and a slight pain in the lump as the fatty tissue is pinched by the muscles in the abdominal wall.
Epigastric hernias won’t go away on their own, even if you feel no pain or other discomfort. In fact, these tend to get larger and may cause complications. Surgery is often recommended.
Constant Discomfort In Left Rib Area For Actu...
Pressure in the abdomen may also increase due to constipation, diarrhea, persistent coughing, or sneezing. Other reasons why abdominal muscles may become weak are poor nutrition, obesity, smoking and old age.
Your abdominal cavity is home to a number of organs like the stomach, gut, spleen, liver, kidneys, urinary bladder, pancreas, gallbladder, etc.
The location of the abdominal mass on your belly may help your healthcare practitioner begin to identify which organ (or associated structure) it is coming from.
Abdominal Mass Information
If you draw a cross on the abdomen, it gets divided into four areas, or quadrants – left upper, right upper, left lower and right lower. Your healthcare practitioner will likely identify the quadrant your lump is in. Lumps can also be classified as either epigastric, (if it is located in the center of the belly, just below the rib cage), or periumbilical (if it is located around the navel, or belly button).
Cysts are small sac-like structures usually filled with a semi-solid material. They can form anywhere in the body. Cysts that may cause a lump on the abdomen include ovarian cysts, pancreatic pseudocysts, and a harmless cyst called peritoneal inclusion. In rare cases, cysts may become cancerous.
Cysts, especially those that are easily visible, can be cleaned by draining the fluid and helping it to heal. However, cysts are usually a manifestation of an underlying cause so the focus should be on treating the condition.
Upper Left Abdominal Pain (left Upper Quadrant): Causes And Treatment
Most cysts form inside the body and may cause complications if they go undiagnosed and untreated. An imaging test like a full-body MRI can help detect such abnormalities inside the body.
Lipomas are soft tissue tumors that form due to the slow growth of fatty tissue. They aren’t cancerous. They cause soft, rubbery lumps that move when you touch them.
They are very common with roughly 1 person in every 1, 000 having them. Most lipomas will not bother you. However, bothersome lipomas may be removed through a minor surgery, which is usually an outpatient procedure.
Soft Tissue Masses
A bacterial infection can cause an abscess or a furuncle (boil), each of which may cause a lump on the surface of the skin.
An abscess is a pus-filled pocket when bacteria enter the skin through a cut or a scratch, they localize and start multiplying. An infection involving a hair follicle may also result in a boil, or a furuncle.
The body’s defense mechanism – the immune system – fights these invaders. The battle leaves many dead cells – bacterial and tissue – along with liquid that has oozed out of the surrounding blood vessels. As the tissue dies, it creates a cavity. The “pus” fills the cavity and causes a lump-like structure.

When a blood vessel ruptures due to a trauma injury, blood leaks out into the tissues where it accumulates, causing what is known as hematoma. The formation of a lump is often a result of an associated inflammatory response – pain, swelling and redness.
Most hematomas naturally resolve with time. If the trauma is severe, there may be widespread internal bleeding and damage that may require medical intervention.
Splenomegaly is a condition in which your spleen becomes enlarged as a result of an underlying condition like liver disease, infections, or blood cancers. The enlarged spleen bulges out and can be felt as a lump on the upper quadrant of the abdomen.
How To Palpate The Abdominal Organs During An Abdominal Exam
The first step is to assess why the spleen is enlarged through a spleen MRI and then to coordinate an appropriate treatment.
The aorta is a major blood vessel that carries blood from your heart to the rest of your body. The bulge on the aorta may burst and cause extreme complications, even death.
If the bulging occurs further down the aorta, it is called abdominal aortic aneurysm. This results in a lump in the abdomen below the chest. While the lump itself may not be as painful, it may relate to throbbing, pulsating pain in the back or the left side.
What Causes A Lump Below The Left Rib Cage?
