I have had a very intence pain under my left rib, at first it felt like it was the ribcage it-self but after rubbing some DeepHeat on I felt it was just below the ribcage.

I can't brath very deeply, if I do I'm in immediate intence pain. If I walk too much the pain increaces. Pain killers doesn't have the desired effect on the pain.

There is no real pain when I drive (i thought that might increase the pain but it didn't).

I just returned from facation thus I don't have any stress, I only picked up 3kg, we didn't realy eat out of the ordanary foods.

The pain was there after waking up after an afternoon nap.
