I have that very same thing! It scared me at first, but I saw a couple different doctors about it, and they both told me it was gas. I still didn't believe it, but it hasn't ever gotten worse over years and it doesn't happen all the time, so now I am inclined to believe them.
Funny, huh?

First of all right below your ribs that is your upper quadrant of your abdomen and not lower so which one is it? It could be anything from excess of gas, gastritis to pancreatic pain. I think you will be best off by going to the doctor. A sonogram of your abdomen is recommended.

could it be Gall Stones or Kidney Stones, the pain can be around the front or the back just under your ribs. The pain can get quite bad to the point where you feel like you are going to puke. Some say it is as close to labor pains in the pain stakes.

Google for abdomen pains, and you should get loads of links. I'm having trouble with my right side, so can't really help you cos different organs on left. I started tests in December and still waiting for final results. Doc may send you for body scan, ultra sound, and if you're really unlucky, a colonoscopy....not nice, and embarrassing, but important. Good luck

You could have gas. Honest. I'm not kidding.
Your doctor can tell you for sure.
