A member asked:
Why is the top part of my stomach where my lungs are always hard. no matter if i have just eaten or not, its like pushing on wood.

It sounds like.....: ...You may be pushing on your ribs, based on your description that its "where my lungs are." if you are certain you are not, and it's really hard "like pushing on wood, " then you need to see your doctor for a complete evaluation. You might need an ultrasound, a scope, or some other testing to find out exactly what it is you're feeling. Good luck to you.
