Hello I am 17 years old and have had this symptoms for nearly a year I would say and started suddenly out of nowhere during a bad time in my life last year around May or April.
So I had this dull pressure under my lower ribs on my left side and it never bothered me, I still ran and did things normally, my only issue was when I laid on my stomach at night i felt that pressure and usually shifted to the side. It was soo odd but for some stupid reason I never cared to go to my gp to take a look. It doesnt stick out it is not bruised. Nothing is swollen and i dont think it gets better/worse with food.
Im freaking out now thinking the worse. These last few days its kind of been more prominent. I keep thinking I have cancer or a tumor. Ive looked up some stuff and and some things like enlarged spleen has popped up but I dont thik i have an infection I cannot find a reason for it other than a tumor because it just feels like a pressure. Tomorrow I am finally going to build up the courage and tell my mom.
Has anyone experienced this and gotten answers or a diagnosis? Thank you all. I will update you guys on my status soon
