I have been experiencing pain on my far left side on the bottom rib. I haven't been able to see anything until today. I noticed a vein that was causing my skin to stretch. It is strange, like someone has pulled it tight and caused it to stay in place instead of moving with my body. I am really not sure how to describe it. 20 Years ago, when I was 8 or 9 months pregnant, I was looking in the mirror and my child moved his arm across my belly. It was the most amazing thing. I could see the little fist and arm move from the bottom left to the top right (or visa versa). This morning, my vein was like that, except it didn't move. I stood sideways and then leaned to the right. There was an abnormal indention in my side and I immediately thought my vein is being pinched by whatever is causing the indention. I know this sounds crazy but I'm not quite ready to go to the doctor and say "Hey, I have a small indention on my left side (bottom rib)". Any thoughts, suggestions???
