I'm really worried about this pain I've been having. I fell on my left side while trying to stop a cricket ball, and now I'm feeling a lot of pain near my lower left rib cage, especially when I'm moving around, walking, or even just turning in my sleep. It's been about 5 days now, and I'm getting concerned that I might have injured my spleen or if it's just a muscle tear. Could you shed some light on what this might be?

It sounds like you may have strained the muscles around your lower left rib cage, especially since the pain worsens with movement. While a spleen injury could cause pain in the area, its less likely unless there's significant trauma, such as a direct blow. If the pain persists or worsens, its best to consult a doctor for an evaluation.

View allI'm aware that drinking energy drinks, especially before a workout, can be risky. But I ended up having one can anyway because I can be pretty stubborn. Now I'm wondering, is it safe if I hit the gym in about 2 hours? Should I wait longer? Would love to know what you think.
yes you can have it . but generally avoid it , it would be better

I've been jogging and exercising regularly, and I'm curious if drinking Oral Rehydration Salt afterwards is actually beneficial for my health. Is it something I should be doing daily, or are there any downsides I should be aware of? It's been quite a routine for me, so I want to make sure I'm not missing anything important for my recovery and overall well-being.
it should be good

I've been experiencing this mild pain on my lower left rib for about a week now, and it's pretty noticeable, especially when I touch the area. The pain seems localized to the rib bone itself, and doesnt feel like its coming from inside my stomach. I think it began after playing cricket recently. Could you give me some guidance on what might be causing this and what I should do about it?
refer to general physician
