A member asked:

Can a cervical herniated disc/ stenosis cause localized moderate pain continously at ribs, base of scapula or would gallbladder be more likely.

Not typically: A disc herniation in the neck can cause neck pain, headaches, and pain or numbness running into the arm. But would not likely cause pain in the location you are describing. If it is spine related, it would typically involve the thoracic spine, but i suspect from what you are describing it is not spine related.
