A member asked:

What to do if i sometimes have pain on my right and left side, right beneath the ribs. what's causing it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

GI Irritation: You could be having a gall bladder problem or hepatobillary spasm. Also, the stomach if it is irritated or has ulcer can give you these symptoms. But most likely gas.
