A member asked:
It feels like my intestines are twisting below my ribs on the right side. this has happened twice after throwing up and feels bruised for hours after?

Be seen: If you feel twisting of your intestines, be seen and confirm it on XR. This can often compromise the blood supply. An ultrasound can be done to establish your risk. All the best.
