What are the organs under ribs on right side?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lung: Directly under the ribs on the right side is the lung. A portion of the thymus gland protrudes to the right and the liver is directly under the right side ribs. A rare condition in which the internal organs are reversed places the heart under the right side.
