Pressure in right side of abdomen

Hi everyone, I am a 33 year old male who is 21 stone, I am on Esmesoprazole for Acid Reflux. Around 1 year ago I started with a sensation in my mid right abdomen which I can only describe as like someone is prodding there finger in that spot. It’s not painful just annoying and worrying. The last few months I’ve had bloating real bad especially after eating. I also take co codamol and ibrupofen every day just to try and get rid of the sensation but the codine causes constipation which makes me constipated which then causes me to tear and bleed when going to the toilet. My weight is not dropping, my appetite is good however I’ve stopped eating as much due to the bloating. I suffer with anxiety and am at my wits end! I had the camera down about 9 months ago and was told I was healthy, I also had the consultant stick his finger up my bum who said my anal wall was smooth and prostate smooth but never have I had a camera up.. can anyone help with any advise what has has similar symptoms?? Thanks

Test for fatty liver and gallstone. Try to stop Esomeprazole first. then stop eating carbohydrate foods. add protein rich foods like eggs and fish for breakfast. you will probably feel well.

Bro I feel like air pouch under my right ribs not everytime bt 1,2 time in a day when I m sitting can this one is very dangerous foe me

Do you drink coffee?

I used to have excruciating gall bladder attacks! I found a website which has helped tremendously!

I began to identify certain foods which would trigger attacks and now do not eat them. Foods which trigger attacks vary from person to person and it is not always fatty foods. Eggs and shrimp are foods I no longer eat and others I eat in moderation, such as dairy. Bottom line, I have eliminated the attacks through changing my diet and taking supplements. It has lead to me eating healthier which is a good thing. I have decided to not have surgery unless absolutely necessary. Good luck!

Hi all. I had.have this same issue. 50 years old. Drink more than my share over the years and partied it up way to much. Liver tests normal, slight elevation but nothing of major concern. I was FREAKED out anyway....cancer? Liver disease? Got a call from the doc today and she said I have fatty liver and a cyst on my liver. She doesn't think that is what causes the symptoms but anyway I am ridiculously relieved I don't have anything life threatening. Bottom line is I intend to cut out the alcohol and shitty food and live a cleaner life. I think for those of us with anxiety about our symptoms there is a reason for it. Anyway I know this isn't really helpful for most of you as it isn't the AHA! answer we are all looking for...stay healthy my friends. 

If it's liver in your case, doesn't mean everyone has the same issue.

I have had that small issue for probably over a year now, I had my gallbladder removed back in October but these same symptoms came back about a week after the surgery and worse than ever. The Surgeon found a cyst on my liver, scans showed I have several but he said they are nothing to worry about and they shouldn't cause and discomfort? So still in the dark. I have cut back my alcohol intake, may have helped as I only now get 1 bout a month, lasts for a few days but not as bad as it used to be.

I am sure it has something to do with the gut, food we eat and food sensitivities (intolerance).
I used to live in Europe and I was perfectly healthy, could eat whatever I want, didn't know what is bloating, what is brain fog and other nasty stuff. When I moved to US, just a year later I started having problems with my stomach! And it never stopped and then 4-5 years later finally came up with everyday bloating, diarrhea, pressure at the right side of my abdomen, constant brain fog. My blood tests showed bad sensitivities to a lot of different foods, including meats, nuts, fruits and veggies. Not even talking about dairy and gluten.
I was 6'1" and 200 lbs at the peak of the problems. Since I gave up sugars, dairy and gluten, my weight dropped significantly and now it's the same as it was 10 years ago. I also fast from time to time. It helps a lot! I mean real FAST, when you only drink water or nothing at all. Believe me, that pressure under ribs has been significantly reduced. I still get it sometimes, but not everyday, like used to! I am planning to get back to gym and hopefully I'll bring my health back completely. But make sure to research a lot about fasting. It's not a toy and it may be really hard mentally in the beginning. There are some details and if you do it wrong way, you will gain no profit at all!

I tried what you said and it worked but as soon as I take away the pressure on my back the felling under my rib comes right back. xxx

Putting pressure on your back behind the rib pain lessens the feeling, I found a very interesting article online about Thoracic neuralgia, apparently the thoracic nerve goes from the back and threads through the ribs, the article i read says this nerve can be pinched due to prolonged sitting or small back injuries, it cannot be found under any scans but can be picked up by a good thoracic surgeon. pain meds, massage seemed to be the cure of this. I wonder if this is what we are suffering with.

Post your number I have same feeling

I feel the same discomfort as all of you but I have weird looking finger nails, do any of you have change in finger nails or little half moons

I feel like a burning non pain on my right side, I don't know what it is, I told my parents but they say I am alright. Am I? Do you guys have change in finger nails or little half moons?

Did u get it done ?? Wat did the doctor say it was
