I've been on a juice fast for about four days now i'm feeling a. faint pain on my left side under my ribbs .should i be worried?

No: Not unless it takes your breath away or starts to radiate to your arm or jaw; if the pain is enhanced by pressing on the chest wall, it's almost certainly chest wall pain. Perhaps the muscles that have been carrying the extra weight for a while are readjusting -- these things are mysterious. Congratulations on your pursuit of health; keep your physician informed.
