For the last month or so I have been experiencing some discomfort in my torso. For the last few days it has been more noticeable. Its on the left side. It isn’t painful, but it’s more of a nuisance. I seem to feel it more when I am doing nothing (like watching TV).
As for the location, it is about as the level of my elbow and right about where my lowest rib is. It seem to be a little swollen, but nothing you can see (you would have to feel both sides to sense it). It also seems to flair up more when I am tired or stressed.
I have looked up the symptoms online, but really can’t find anything on it. Any Idea? I know I probably need to see a doctor. I will as soon as I can.

Pain On Left Side Under Chest (upper Belly)?
July 13th, 2010Fat Belly, Gas Problem, Subcutaneous Fatty Deposits, Chest Pain. Any Solution?
February 15th, 2010hi. i have a few problems which have been bothering me for quite a while. at first they seemed to be no big deal and unrelated, but recently i’ve been worrying whether they’re symptoms of some kind of disease.
1. fat belly (this has been years, i remember since i’m say 14 maybe? i’m 23 now). this is really embarassing as my friends often tease me for being pregnant, i can’t wear fit clothing and i also have to walk around sheilding my tummy with a bag or something. my back is quite curved, so i just thought maybe that’s why my tummy is like that since i’m a girl and it’s normal to have fat in the belly to protect my reproductive organs. the thickness when i pinch/hold is roughly about 1.5inch.
2. wind/gas problem. this is all the time. not only after meal or any time only, but all the time. see? now i think my tummy is full of gas rather than fat. and also, it sounds like a drum when i tap my belly. i’m quite a windy person, but recently it’s been worse. also, after meal, often it feels like i’m burping, but it’s not coming out.
3. fatty deposits (i think) under skin of inner side of both arms. many uneven small lumps. this one i noticed since maybe a year or less.
4. also i have been experiencing chest pain (left side) is it the heart? before very rarely, recently say, once a month? i’m not sure. this really worries me, made me think i’m hypercholesterolemic. i haven’t done a blood test yet, but planning to when i have the time.
for extra information, i’m 1.57m and 56kg roughly (haven’t measured myself lately). i’m a student of biomedicine, so you can explain as detailed as possible. thank you very much in advance for any kind of help/suggestion/solution/explaination
