I have been having a dull ache under my left ribcage, it seems worse when I have just eaten something, then eases off and goes away,I also feel slightly bloated with a heavy feeling. Is it my stomach that has a problem.

Do you feel like the pain felt under the left ribcage is radiating through to the back?
Have you experienced an episode of pain that lasts few days?
Do you find this pain worse when you lay flat on your back?
Are you nauseous or like vomiting at that moments?
