QuestionMy back hurts constantly on the right side under my ribs. I have been seeing my chripractor and he adjust me for about 3 weeks. I got relief from this. He said I have disc problems and my spine turns to make my posture off. I have focused on my sitting, standing, and sleeping habits and have been doing the exercises he recommended but my concern is the spot is so high up and always in the same spot under my ribs. Could this be some internal problem. The pain comes back too often. Thanks for any help you may offer. Christy
AnswerDear Christy,
I could really use a bit more information here, but my first response is to have your gall bladder checked.
If you would like to add more information, I need to know your age, weight, how long this has been going on and EXACTLY where you are feeling this. Also, any dietary problems may be useful too.
Good luck,
Dr. P
