Sharp pain behind ribcage

2018-01-07 03:56:38
So I have been having sharp lingering pain behind his left rib cage that also transfers to his back. Long with this he can not eat alot because his stomach becomes extremely bloated. Its also hard to breath . Its been going on for atleast a consistent month. We are afraid it might be early signs of colon cancer.
