Hi, i've got a small soft bulge on my left rib cage, it's 5cm below my breast, it's neither pain or moveable, it's been there for months, any clues?

Lipoma maybe: It could be a lipoma. Only way to know for sure is to see a physician. Would start with your family physician and then see if he/she sends you to a general surgeon.
