A member asked:
By my lower left rib it looks bigger than the right one , could it be a roll , and i keep getting a weird feeling where my neck vein is , dialation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rib normal, neck ?: None of us are made completely symmetrically from side to side; often one lower rib sticks out more or is bigger than the other, especially if there has been a prior injury. If it KEEPS getting bigger and more prominent, see doctor. Regarding the "weird feeling" vein in your neck, this is difficult to diagnose by computer; it could be a muscle, nerve, or lymph node; see Dr. for exam. Good Luck!
