A member asked:
Can a real bad squeeze to the ribs, meaning false ribs. can it cause irritation in gas build up as far as belching a lot and intestinal gas?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Dont think so. - False ribs do not cause flatulence or belching. I don't understand the question clearly. Do you suspect you have a false rib? what makes you suspect that.
