I feel like something is stuck under my left rib cage. When I lay down and stretch my abdomen, the feeling increases and feels like it is a ball under my left lung, I also experience pain under my left rib cage periodically in unequal intervals of time (about 4-5 times a day). This feeling also increases when I sit down bending my back, means fully exhaling air out of my lungs. Could it be a tumor? Please help me. I am too much worried and 16 years old.

It can be simple gas. 1. Don't overeat 2. Don't take tea empty stomach. Eat something like a banana (if you are not diabetic) or any seasonal fruit or soaked almonds and a glass of water first thing in the morning (within 10 mins of waking up). No only biscuits or rusk will not do. 3. Take your breakfast every day. Don't skip it. 4. Have light meals every 2 hours (in addition to your breakfast, lunch n dinner) e.g. Nariyal paani, chaach, a handful of dry fruits, a handful of peanuts, any fresh n seasonal fruit, a cup of curd/milk etc 5.
