Q: Trapped Air Bubble Feeling Behind Left Rib?

For about two weeks I have had a feeling like an air bubble was behind my rib cage. Then after playing about 6 games of air hockey I noticed when I was in the shower that my left rib was actually kind of sticking out, swollen and appears to be bruised. It does not hurt on the outside and doesnt cause too much pain at all besides the bubble feeling here and there but always behind my left rib cage. I am a 26 yr old female. I have never had heartburn or stomach problems. I do not have constipation or diarreah. Has anyone had this type of pain behind left rib?

Hello my daughter has the same problem but it causes her servere pain. She has had pain on and off since oct 2006. the doctors finally said that she was impacted as of may 2007. we have been doing treatment all weekend but she doesn't seem to be doing better. Did your pain ever go away.
