Pain under rib on left side . any ideas ?
If you're new post op (you don't have surgery date listed), it could be the way you were placed for surgery. Some surgeons actually suspend the patient with a hook. It doesn't hurt to give the doc a call, especially if you're new.
If you're not new, it could be anything, really, from GERD to gallbladder.

I too have a pain under my left rib. They took out my gallbladder during my surgery. it's bizarre. not severe or anything but bothersome.
I'll ask my doc about it. (just get a general check up ) (since my surgery was in mexico)
THe pain seems to have gone away, (for now) so yay!

Left side lower under rib could be spleen. maybe inflamed from surgery? If you drink alcohol, it will make it worse.
