[|Human|] yes, I have a lump underneath left rib cage. I started hurting last week, and just yesterday the pain was unbareable. Went to Patient First, doctor says that it looks like lipoma, but that i should visit my PCP and get an ultrasound to see it its harming anything. I m worry because when I eat dairy it hurts a lot.
[|AI|]  Hi, Dear thanks for the query to Chat Doctor virtual clinic. I studied your query in full details. I understood your health concerns. With whatever details are given by you, the lump under the rib cage seems to be Epigastric hernia, as it hurts /pains after daily eating. The lump is the entrapped pre-peritoneal fat with herniated mesenteric tissue.USG of the abdomen would fix the diagnosis of Epigastric Ventral herniation, which needs to be treated by ER Surgeon. Hope this would help you to get rid of the anxiety with this query. Welcome to Chat Doctor in this regard by any further query. Have a good health and early recovery. Chat Doctor. N.
