Q: Left Rib Cage Pain 24/7

I have had this pain for a couple of months now. It never goes away. It even hard to get any rest. The only way I can lessen the pain is to take darvocet. The pain is on my left side and runs down to my stomach area. It feels like a knife is stabbing me in the ribs to my stomach. If anyone can relate to this problem please respond.Thanks

Does it feel like the pain is behind your rib cage? If so it could be severe asthma....I know it sounds dumb...But I use to have really severe pain in the same area....And I found out it was my lungs contracting and it hurts rele rele bad....I donno I could be wrong...

Left Side Pain And Swelling

Has anybody had swelling with the pain? In may on a cruise to alaska, I had a body wrap and the technician noticed a lump on the top of my rib cage on the upper left hand side. She asked if I had any previous problems here. I didn't even notice it until she mentioned it!

Over the last couple of days it has swollen up and I am getting pain at this site now.

Can't get in to see my dr for 2 weeks and am wondering what this might be now.

Any suggestions?
