Hurting from GERD, or is it.
My dad has been hurting for 1 month under his
ribs
Rib cage pain
on the left side, he has tried everything. He has even tried a heating pad. The only thing that makes him feel better is a good hot shower. The pain seems to disappear in an instant. Please let me know what any one thinks or knows about this.
Thanks
Tabatha
