A member asked:
Hi, i've been having a numb/discomfort sensation under my right rib and runs along to the side and to my back and i start to worry, is it a nerve?

Possibly: You can have nerve impingement in the thoracic spine that can cause similar symptoms, possibly from a thoracic disc herniation. There are other potential causes as well. I would not hesitate to be seen for an accurate diagnosis and to discuss treatment options. Thank you for the question.
