A member asked:
Ive got a cramping sensation around my torso under the ribs...sort of feels like a tight belt. sometimes quite painful but just tight most of the time?

Abdominal tightness: Consider gallbladder disease, gastritis, colon or constipation, pancreatic disease, lung issues. May also be cardiac disease so would have it checked out within 24-48 hours.
