A member asked:

Bubbly sensation under rib cage on the left side could it be trapped gas or could it be cancer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. Cancer is unlikely however, it would be prudent to see a doctor. Wish you good health!
