I'm dealing with this chronic pain under my left rib cage, and it seems to act up mostly when I sleep on my left side. The pain isn't unbearable, but it's happening quite frequently. I also feel like the area beneath my left and right rib cages don't feel the sameis this normal? I remember getting hit by a cricket ball there as a kid. Could that have something to do with it? What might be going on?

The chronic pain under your left rib cage, exacerbated by sleeping on your left side, could be related to a possible rib injury or fracture from the childhood cricket ball incident, leading to conditions like costochondritis, intercostal neuralgia, or rib tip syndrome; consult orthopaedician

I've been dealing with this really annoying itching around my anus for about a month now. I tried taking Zentel, but it hasn't helped at all. What could be causing this, and is there something else I should be trying for relief?
Itching around the anus could be due to multiple causes, including infections, hemorrhoids, or skin irritation. Since Zentel hasnt helped, its unlikely to be worms. Keep the area clean and dry, use an anti-itch cream like hydrocortisone, and consider consulting a doctor for further evaluation.

I recently had an abdominal ultrasound that showed multiple small gallstones in my gallbladder, the largest being 4mm. I haven't had any pain or issues so far do I still need surgery? Also, the scan showed Grade 1 fatty liver how serious is that? Should I be worried?
A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.
