[|Human|] I have been having an uncomfortable feeling right below the right rib cage. It s like something is there. I don t feel it all the time. I have a handicapped daughter who I pick up frequently. She weighs 100 lbs. Could this be a hernia? Thank you.
[|AI|]  HelloDiscomfort below the right rib cage may be due to many causes like right lung or pleural cavity pathology, problem in liver or gall bladder, musculoskeletal causes etc. It appears that it is due to musculoskeletal cause, but it is important to exclude other causes. You may need clinical correlation and further investigations. Investigation includes routine hologram, liver function test, chest X-ray (PA), ultrasound of abdomen. Ultrasound of abdomen can exclude many conditions. Proper treatment depend upon findings. It is not a common site of hernia. Get well soon. Take Care Chat Doctor.
