I have an intense pain radiating across my back and under my ribcage. i had a baby 7 weeks ago. could it be related & should i seek medical attention?

Yes: If you are having severe pain, I would definitely recommend being seen. There are numerous possibilities and an exam and appropriate studies can likely yield the cause. Among the many possibilities can be gallstone, kidney stone, pancreatitis, atelectasis, pneumonia, costochondritis, among many other things. I would be seen to get an accurate diagnosis.
