A member asked:
Constant ache left side about 2" from ribcage/upper stomach area. sometimes slight stabbing pain. what could be wrong?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Chest pain: It seems more like a costochondritis, but I am a little confused as to the location. This occurs usually about the 4th-6th costochondral junction about 2 inches from the sternum. Try to press and it hurts. And the treatment initially are nsaids like advil (ibuprofen) or alive. Nevertheless, see your doctor to make sure.
