Sudden Severe Pain on Both Sides of Back

I am experiencing sudden, sharp pain on both sides of my back ribs. The pain is severe, around 8/10, and I do not have any other symptoms, and there is no pain while breathing. Could this pain be caused by gas, acidity, muscle spasms, or some other problem? What could be the possible cause, and what should I do to get relief? Do I need any tests or a physical examination? Please suggest what might be causing this pain and advise me on the next steps. Thank you

Lump underarm, it's serious

She has a lump in her underarm, it doesn't ache normally but when pressed or touched harder, it's not very big nor small, she's very stressed about it because she thinks it's some sort of cancer because her family had some cases of cancer, her mother's sister had cancer, she's scared that it might be breast cancer... I HOPE IT IS NOT!! i wanted someone knowledgeable to clarify something to her, without scaring her, she's scared to tell this to anyone, except me. While treating her make sure she feels positive please, i will be very grateful
